[NTLUG:Discuss] Mouse trouble

Environment: SuSE 12.2 with KDE 4.8.5 "release 2"

I think I did something (don't know what unless it was use hibernate for 
a while, I have done a normal shutdown a few times since then but the 
issue persists) and now my mouse is acting strangely when I click things:

  * Sometimes the click isn't acknowledged: I'll be playing kshisen
    (KDE's Shisen-Sho) or kmahjongg and click a piece only to have it
    not highlight, I have to "play with it" to get it to work.  What
    works sometimes is to click, hold and drag to the other piece. 
    Another example is I'll select Insert->Comment in OpenOffice Writer
    4.0.1 only to have the menu disappear with no comment inserted.
  * Other times it's as if a single click became a double click: I'll
    click a minimized Kate only to have it restore but then immediately
    minimize.


Any ideas or suggested solutions?
