X log file after -HUP of Xorg process & attempts to use mouse clicking

Description of problem:

Host was upgraded from Fedora 16 to Fedora 17. After upgrade and booting into X, cursor does show and mouse but clicking of mouse does nothing.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

I have tried the following versions of xorg-x11-server-Xorg and xorg-x11-server-common: 1.12.4-6, 1.12.4-2, 1.12.0-2.

How reproducible: 100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot system to X login screen
2. Try to click mouse on items
3.
  
Actual results: Clicks do not do anything

Expected results: Clicks to work

Additional info: I have attached the Xorg.0.log generated after -HUP'ing the Xorg process and attempting to click with the mouse.

Noting typo in "Description of problem". That should read "cursor does show and move but clicking of mouse does nothing".

Further, kernel version is 3.8.3-103.fc17.x86_64.

Noting that I narrowed this down to something in GNOME 3.

Ultimately worked around by switching host to more stable CentOS.

Comment 3 Fedora End Of Life 2013-07-04 05:07:06 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 17 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 17. 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bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 '17'.

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 17'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 17 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, you are encouraged  change the 
'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life.

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.

Comment 4 Fedora End Of Life 2013-08-01 15:48:11 UTC
Fedora 17 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-07-30. Fedora 17 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no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further 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.
