Hello. I recently installed Ubuntu 8.04 on a Dell Latitude D360 laptop using Wubi. I'm noticing some weird mouse issues. For example, if I click-and-drag on the desktop (or in a folder), a portion of the box will remain on screen. Like this:

Occasionally, my mouse also "freezes up". That is, it can still move around the screen and can still detect clicks (right clicks, icons highlight when I click), but will not be able to select any menus, open any desktop icons, etc.

I briefly checked the D360 thread and it doesn't seem others are having this problem. Any suggestions?

Have you restarted since you noticed this? It may be a problem with Gnome. If that is true a restart should fix it.
