Sounds unlikely to be an X bug. Please provide the output of xinput list and xinput test-xi2 when that happens. Cheers, Julien signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Not sure how to debug then. Cheers, Julien Hi Julien Just some additional information the mouse, keyboard is a microsoft wireless desktop and connected via a bluetooth usb dongle. Also it is connected via a kvm, I am pretty sure I havent switched mid trace, but I wonder if its worth trying to reproduce this without the kvm in the way.
