Same problem on Lubuntu 14.04
Touchscreen: (MasterTouch MT-500 USB), supports only single touch.
Mouse not connected.

problem appears in next apps:
- Chromium: 62.0.3202.75
- Firefox 28.0

Sometimes MouseUp just not firing:
https://prnt.sc/hefody

then i close Chromium / Firefox with ALT+F4

but mouse still stuck in "MouseDown" state _systemwide_ :
https://www.dropbox.com/s/bf57bg47f3zsq2m/test.mp4?dl=0

Even if I connect the mouse to the computer after the problem occurs -
the left mouse button will not work.

But mtpaint works fine! There is some difference in how mtpaint and
(chromium, firefox) works with mousedown / mouseup events.


Any ideas? I need use touchscreen and don't need mouse. So i can't disable the touchscreen as recommended, because this will make the whole system unusable.

Thanks

When clicking on the Bookmark root or on one of the bookmarks below
the mouse cursor gets stuck in "drag n drop" mode, blocking all
keyboard entry and also mouse clicks for the the whole GUI
(systemwide).

Unfortunately I cannot provide any debug or other information, as I
have to reboot everytime.

I am running Ubuntu 9.04 with compiz enabled.

Many thanks in advance for your help with this problem,

I disabled the touchscreen by adding `blacklist hid-multitouch` to
`/etc/modprobe.d/hid_multitouch.conf`, rebooted, and within 15 minutes
the bug was back.

It appears as though the super key gets "stuck".
* I have super + e bound to open nautilus, and if I press e when my computer gets into this state, it does indeed open nautilus.
* The behavior of the mouse when holding down `super` is consistent with the described behavior.

Please advise as soon as possible. This bug has rendered my linux
installation unusable.

New information:

I've been using my ubuntu installation for several days since I posted
my last comment, and had not encountered the bug until I used the `Super
+ FN + Up Arrow`/`Super + FN + Down Arrow` to change workspaces. As soon
as I did that, the bug returned. Will attempt to re-create and report
back again.

Update from previous comment:

I was able to get the gnome environment into this erroneous state by
using the aforementioned `Super + FN + UP/DN` shortcut to move back and
forth between my workspaces. At this point I think it's reasonable to
call this bug reproducible.

The same happens for me, all the way on Ubuntu 17.10 x64. Issue happens
moreso when multitasking between Openshot and Firefox.
