Recently, when I right-click on my mouse, sometimes it works, but other times not. I am using XFCE on Fedora 32. Could you please help me?
Try running "xev" or "evtest" to see if the events are actually happening. "xev" shows the X events, "evtest" will show you the kernel level events.
Thank you, Samuel and the other respondents.
I have tried "evtest", but it only detects left-button events (and none from middle- and right-buttons).
If evtest isn't showing you any other events then most likely your mouse is broken. Any events coming in on the USB port should be showing up there. The only other alternative is a pretty serious kernel bug. Can you try the mouse on another computer? Do you have another USB mouse to try on this one?
