Description of problem: The mouse scroll wheel works perfectly fine when the computer is first booted into Fedora 9. After a long period of inactivity on the computer (about 1 hour) the scroll wheel completely stops working. The only way to resolve this problem is to reboot the computer. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.25-14.fc9.i686 xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.4.99.901-29.20080415.fc9.i386 kde 4.0.4 How reproducible: Follow steps below... Steps to Reproduce: 1.Boot computer. 2.Leave computer idle for an hour or more. 3.Open a browser window or any other application that uses the scroll wheel and you will see that it no longer works. Actual results: Scroll wheel stops working after about an hour of inactivity. Expected results: Scroll wheel should never stop working. Additional info: The computer setup I am using has never had problems with the scroll wheel on Fedora 7, Fedora 8 or Kubuntu 8.04. This problem is very specific to Fedora 9. I originally upgraded from Fedora 8 to Fedora 9...when I noticed the mouse problem and couldn't find a solution I reinstalled Fedora 9 only to find that the problem was still there. I have tried this with open source X drivers and proprietary drivers with the same results. I also rolled back to the Fedora 8 version of Xorg and still experienced the same problem. My computer is a Gateway GM5260 and I am using a Logitech LX7 wireless optical mouse. I am also using a Belkin OmniCube 2 port KVM switch and dual Sceptre 19" LCDs.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 9. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '9'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 9 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-07-10. Fedora 9 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
