From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Is it just f42 or any OS? I've had issues in the past with some mice being treated as a keyboard and it would do exactly this.
Fedora & mint has this issue, but suspend works in arch tho. Maybe because i dont have swap partition?
Maybe you've fixed this by now, but thinking about it again it was a gaming mouse I used to have. Windows would do it too. Ended up having to do something with it in dbus or something cuz it reported as a keyboard instead of a mouse.
