Can't mouse-click in character creator

Post by aetius »

Dist: Gentoo
Mouse: Logitech Mx518
x.org: 1.3.0.0-r5
nvidia-drivers: 169.12

Mouse works fine in the main menu. When I go to start a new game, it puts me in the character creator. Inside the character creation screen, I cannot click anything with any of the mouse buttons. Motion still works and the program responds to the mouse location, bringing up the description and mouseover effects correctly. If I press ESC, I can click on the "Yes" or "No" buttons with no problem.

Plugging in a different mouse in addition to the logitech does not help. Plugging in a different mouse instead of the Logitech does not help.

Code: Select all

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Mouse0"
        Driver      "mouse"
        Option      "CorePointer"
        Option      "Buttons" "10"
        Option      "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
        Option      "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
        Option      "Resolution" "800"
        Option      "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
        Option      "ButtonMapping" "1 2 3 6 7"

Try rebooting your computer. This has fixed many prior mouse issues in the past.
