I’ve got a Raspberry Pi 5 which I’ve got set up and am slowly installing things on via Docker Compose, but I’ve realised that I’m unable to copy or even highlight text. It’s like there’s a phantom click or something. The mouse works on my other laptop, but that’s got its own problems. Anyone know how to fix it?

    Out of curiosity are you able to click on text and highlight it by holding the shift key and arrowing? Then copy and paste it with ctrl+c and ctrl+v? Not trying to give you a work-around necessarily, but wondering if it is mouse related or something else.

    Have you tried another mouse on the pi?

      I can, but unfortunately, I can’t even highlight text in the browser unless I turn on the cursor setting and that’s kinda overkill.

      I’ll try another mouse when I get back to my Pi
