The Debian team has now updated GNUBG, and applied a fix to work around this issue on future releases of Ubuntu. Ubuntu's next release 12.10 "Quantal Quetzal" uses the newer version. The earlier suggestion in this bug report has been known to work around it on older Ubuntu distros.

More information on this bug can also be found in Ubuntu's bug tracking system: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnubg/+bug/932455

For some reason the overlay scrollbars under Ubuntu 11.10 do not work with GNUBG for some yet unknown reason.

If you want to turn overlay scrollbars off for just GNUBG so that
launching from the menu works then do this from a command terminal:

sudo nano /usr/share/applications/gnubg.desktop

Modify the line that starts with Exec= and replace it with this new one:

Exec=env LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0 gnubg -w

This should allow GNUBG to run properly, and you will notice the
scrollbars appear normally.

after analyzing a match, you can make about 4 more mouse-clicks, but then you cannot use the mouse anymore. you have to kill gnubg before you can use the mouse again.

OS: ubuntu 11.10, installed with ubuntu software center.

100% reproducible.
