I have Severn basically updated with Rawhide.
Gnome 2.4 is great, however has anyone else had a problem with windows being sticky to the mouse? I mean I click on a title bar to change focus, and I move the mouse the the window is in a move state following my mouse around until I click once again then it drops.
Any Guesses?
Thanks Kreg

Do you have a USB mouse?

Yes and no... it is a usb mouse, using the PS/2 adapter through my KVM. I did hook up this mouse up directly to this machine, and had the same results. Mouse is a Logitech Mx700... this is a laptop, and if I remember correctly I had the same prob with the touch pad last night. It happens very frequently but not every time.
I haven't had this problem with previous versions of RH.

I'm experiencing the same problem on a similar system (my system was shrike -> rawhide, but all rawhide now) using both my touchpad (a synaptics touchpad on a compaq presario 2715us) and my usb mouse (a MS Wheel Mouse Optical). I've experienced this problem with both 2.4 kernels and the 2.6 test kernels from Arjan, so I think it is an X problem, not a kernel problem. I'm pretty sure that this only started recently too, sometime after the problem with alt-tab window switching was fixed.

Well that sucks, and at the same time I am happy it isn't just me. I thought that it might be an x issue as well, or gnome. I did tail my log files, and I can't see anything relating to it when it happens.
I haven't tried going into KDE to see if the problem is there too.(With Gnome 2.4 I am quickly becoming a Gnome user only) I think that I will try that today.
Have you or anyone else seen something like this in Bugzilla?

OK, I just wondered; there's a weird USB mouse bug that can result in double-clicks on a single-click, and I didn't know if this was that plus window manager configuration...
But it's not.

I think that it is in just Gnome. I am using KDE for now with no probs. In all fairness, it could be that I installed Severn and then upgraded all those packages from the Severn Update. You know there is always something in the back of my mind that says there could be something funky when you update that many packages.
Since Beta#2 is coming out today, I may just install that and see if my problem persists. I really dont want to file a bug on something that may have already been taken care of in the new beta.
<grin>I was going to install the new beta anyway.</grin>

I installed Severn Test 2 this morning... and I am still having the same problem. I do believe that it has something to do with Mozilla and Gnome.
