Description of problem: updated to fedora10. i have a xinerama config with nvidia cards (with the closed source driver from nvidia/rpmfusion). used to work with fedora8. after some work it worked with fedora10 and xserver1.5, too. but every 5-10 minutes i lose my mousebuttons (the mouse-pointer is visible and seems to work, but i cannot click). keyboard used to work, but today even my keyboard stopped to work. Setup: 2 nvidias, 2 monitors, 1 keyboard, but 2 mice Xorg.0.log has: (II) config/hal: Adding input device AT Translated Set 2 keyboard (EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (II) config/hal: Adding input device Power Button (CM) (EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (II) config/hal: Adding input device Power Button (FF) (EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (II) config/hal: Adding input device ImExPS/2 Logitech Explorer Mouse (EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (II) config/hal: Adding input device Macintosh mouse button emulation (EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed How reproducible: restart X and wait

Maybe a dupe of 473825?
im not sure if this is the same problem, but i will try to use the mentioned debugging-software and come back with infos as soon as i have them.
xev shows no reaction for mouse-clicks, as this is happening. i can though move the mouse and currently i can start programs via keyboard.

that's an in-kernel emulation for one-button mice. don't worry about it if you don't have a use for it. try xdpyinfo | grep root to get the root window ID, then run xev -id <root window id> when the mouse doesn't work.
interesting: my system kept stable until today in the morning. xev -id 0x125 > /tmp/xev.txt 2>&1 shows that i receive buttonpresses and releases and of cource motions.

Closing this as duplicate of Bug 473825. If the mouse doesn't work but the root window still sees the event this is exactly the same problem. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 473825 ***
