Huge mouse-click delay
Hello, for a few days now, I'm experiencing (sometimes multi-second!) delays between mouse click and reaction on my laptop. It's running: X.org 7.7+16 (Debian sid) Intel graphics driver 2:2.99.917+git20160706 evdev 2.10.2 I've already rebooted, but the problem stayed. I am a bit at a loss getting to the root of this. xev reports the events ASAP, so the delay is at a later stage. Do you have any tips on what I could try to zone in on this problem? It's really quite annoying to have to wait 1–2 seconds between pressing down the mouse and seeing a result dragging it e.g. to select text.

It's a Logitech wireless, and I initially thought that the dongle might be the problem, but the delay persists even if I remove the dongle, and mouse clicks using the external mouse are similarly delayed. It's an X240 with that dreadful touchpad-is-all-mousebuttons "solution". I am just adding this because maybe the driver is synaptics (version 1.8.3). -- @martinkrafft | http://madduck.net/ | http://two.sentenc.es/ now I lay me back to sleep. the speaker's dull; the subject's deep. if he should stop before I wake, give me a nudge for goodness' sake. spamtraps: madduck.bo...@madduck.net digital_signature_gpg.asc Description: Digital GPG signature (see http://martin-krafft.net/gpg/sig-policy/999bbcc4/current) ___ xorg@lists.x.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: https://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: %(user_address)s
Re: Huge mouse-click delay
So even if restarting the machine does not solve the problem, you can also try to unload/load kernel module (if your system permits it) : sudo rmmod psmouse sudo modprobe psmouse Another thing you can try is to start your machine with a live CD/DVD (Linux Ubuntu, Debian,...) in order to determine if the problem is related with your system or your hardware.

Okay, something I can try back at home, but I am on the road right now :/ -- @martinkrafft | http://madduck.net/ | http://two.sentenc.es/ "sobald man über niveau spricht ist man längst darüber hinweg." -- thomas krafft spamtraps: madduck.bo...@madduck.net digital_signature_gpg.asc Description: Digital GPG signature (see http://martin-krafft.net/gpg/sig-policy/999bbcc4/current) ___ xorg@lists.x.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: https://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: %(user_address)s

Does "export GDK_CORE_DEVICE_EVENTS=1" help anything on the matter (notice that exports affect only the shell, ie. you need to start the client from the same terminal, not the desktop shell) Cheers, Thomas ___ xorg@lists.x.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: https://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: %(user_address)s

If so, then the issue is in the toolkit (but judging from the rest that's not the case anyway). any server updates recently? can you downgrade?
