This problem deals with the mouse.Upgraded from 10.04 to 10.10,64 bit.The problem is the mouse's left button stops working,and the scroll wheel stops functioning.Right button works and the pointer works.To fix the problem,I removed the USB cable(wireless mouse and keyboard)for 3 seconds and plug it back in,and everything works again.This only happened with the 10.10 upgrade.I would like to find a permanent fix for this,for the wife would not want to deal with unplugging and replugging,I don't care for it either.
This is the only problem I've encountered so far with this upgrade.
Keyboard shortcuts like play/pause,launch media player,etc.,seems to cause the mouse to freak,seems to be working most of the time,though. I know,just do not use the keyboard shortcuts,but that's not a reliable solution,especially when everything worked before the upgrade.
