I recently upgraded to 10.10, and every now and then my laptop's moue button will "stick" and won't click up. It's very annoying because I can't click on anything. Ubuntu thinks my mouse button is always in a "down" position. And the only solution is to restart my computer (as far as I can tell).

I'm not sure how to show what touchpad I have...is this right?
