Description Julian Aloofi 2009-11-29 18:16:45 UTC
Description of problem:
When using mesa-dri-divers experimental I can't click on anything clutter-based.
Displaying and keyboard control works great, but it simply seems to ignore the mouse pointer. I can for example use the Super key to hide/show the overlay in gnome-shell, but can't use the mouse pointer to click on anything. Hovering doesn't seem to work either.
I see my mouse pointer moving however. This also occurs in moblin. No problems with the normal mesa-dri-drivers (apart from slower performance).


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mesa-dri-drivers-experimental-7.6-0.13.fc12.i686

How reproducible:
Using clutter on a machine with a ATI Radeon HD 2600 and the mesa-dri-drivers-experimental package.

  
Actual results:
I can't click on anything, just use the keyboard.


Expected results:
Normal behaviour, mouse clicking and hovering create some kind of response.


Additional info:
The card I'm using is ATI Radeon HD 2600.

Same problem here with ATI Radeon 4550.  Regular gnome works fine.  Metacity compositor works fine.  But launching gnome-shell, I cannot click on Activities, Sidebar, or user name.  Oddly, I can click on notification area icons.

I have the same issue on my PC.  If it helps, here's the link to my smolt profile:

It seems that the latest version of mesa solved this issue on my machine with an AIT Radeon HD 4350:
   $ rpm -qa mesa\*
   mesa-dri-drivers-7.7-2.fc12.x86_64
   mesa-libGL-7.7-2.fc12.x86_64
   mesa-libGLU-7.7-2.fc12.x86_64
   mesa-dri-drivers-experimental-7.7-2.fc12.x86_64

I can confirm Comment #4 for Gnome Shell, but haven't tested Moblin yet.
Very delighting! :)

I can confirm this: gnome shell is now working for me with my mouse.

Closing this, as it seems to work now for all commenters.
