[SOLVED] My Windows Were Acting "Wonky"
by kevinbenko from LinuxQuestions.org on (#58DWQ)
Pre-stroke, when I had something that didn't work right, and figured it out, I posted the solution, with a [solved] tag so someone else could take advantage of what I had learned.
It doesn't matter the distribution, nor the window manager. My windows were misbehaving. I couldn't move a window, I couldn't even do simple things with my windows. I had originally thought that a package had been "updated" and that the "update" "borked" my windows. But when I saw the same behavior on all of my windowing managers, I started thinking...
Maybe it wasn't my system, maybe it was my mouse.
It was my mouse.
As I ALWAYS have multiple new mouses (or mice) I just opened another mouse box, plugged it in, and it worked PERFECTLY!
So, if your windows are misbehaving, remember it could be your mouse.
Thank you, all, for allowing me to post this solution. And have a good day!
