Unity stops responding to left mouse clicks after using game tab

Hello,
I have linux fedora 31 OS and unity 2020 1.7.f1 (but every 2020 release I tried) has this issue.
after clicking once in the game tab (che camera space or the menu above it) my left mouse click gets inibhited and the editor does not respond to it any longer. This happens only in the game tab (maybe (but im'not sure in the import modal).

Restart unity allow you to use left click again, until you left click game tab once more).

I noticed that when the left click is inibhited I can get it back to work without restarting by trying several times to use the left click to move layout separators. It usually requires 4-5 tries but then is starts to work again.

I noticed this unanswered question on your Q&A section.
Please give me some useful feedback as it is quite frustrating.

Thanks in advance,
Luca

 

I don't know the specific answer to your question, but since Unity has very specific system requirements for Linux I'd verify first you're running that. Well except your OS version, which Unity isn't testing against.

https://docs.unity3d.com/2020.1/Documentation/Manual/system-requirements.html

Specifically I'm talking about making sure you're running Gnome with either the Nvidia proprietary graphics driver or the AMD Mesa driver.

 

You pointed me in the right direction, thank a lot.
Didn't think at first in considering system specification. Besides I used fedora, not recommended ubuntu or centos, thus I thought I was not requirements-compliant. But looking better at requirements I noticed that it is required x11 windowing system, while I was under wayland. Switching context solved the problem.

 

@lupa984 Thanks for the information that I needed to try to move the separators several times before the mouse starts working again.

I've checked that I'm running under X11 and I still had the problem. So maybe it's not wayland related? You managed to solve your problem only by switching context (from wayland to X11)?
