So after alot of googling I even found other answered questions on the topic that said a fix was always along the lines of
"
This is a common Ubuntu bug. Try to do this: Back up the xorg.conf file
sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.orig
May the files doesn't exist. This is not necessary.
Anyway edit the file with sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf and paste this:
Section "InputClass" Identifier "Mouse Remap" MatchProduct "Saitek Cyborg R.A.T.3 Mouse" MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*" Option "ButtonMapping" "1 2 3 4 5 6 7 0 0 0 0 0 0 0" EndSection
Press Ctrl+O to save and Ctrl+X to exit the editor. Reboot for functionality! "
However after Trying said fix. I can now oddly left click panel buttons on the left in unity. However left clicking in any windows still doesn't work Ie. I can click firefox and launch it but can't interact via mouse with firefox in any way. (or any other application including things like system settings app) Not quite sure where to go from here. I do have two mice on the system at one time which may also be part of the issues. I have a logitech K400r keyboard with mousepad. Being a truck drivers most days I just use the mousepad but when space permits like right now I am at a desk in a hotel. I use my Mad catz mouse to play games and just for better and faster use of GUI. Thank you and I hope this isn't too much of a stupid or bothersome question. I just created my account in so many years with ubuntu I never had to use AskUbuntu. I was just going to comment on the old problem but I didn't have the Reputation to comment.
