I have a Sony Vaio CW23FX and use a wireless usb mouse and it worked perfect until the 2 days ago. Now the mouse is a little crazy.

When I use Chromium it works fine, but with I try to click ther unity bar or other application or alt+tab or superbutton dont work (ctrl+alt+right or left works). If I power off the mouse and use the touchpad, back to works fine, if I back for the usb mouse for a little time works fine and then bug again.

It's like the mouse freezes in the window I'm using.

I've read this https://askubuntu.com/questions/60647/mouse-randomly-clicks-jumps-and-blocks-clicking-keyboard-then-also-messes-up and tried the xwininfo -all, and returns Can't grab the mouse.

What can I do?

    Was that an xorg update? Have you tried rebooting? Sep 14, 2011 at 17:27

Copied from comments because some people (like me) never look at the comments if there is no answer when they are having the same problem...
