Having the same issue with a Citrix X1 Bluetooth mouse. It is detected, but the pointer doesn't move.

Comment 2 Ed Greshko 2018-09-13 00:53:38 UTC 
FYI, I installed kernel-4.18.7-200 from koji and it did Not fix the problem.
Comment 3 Andrey Chessnokov 2018-09-13 08:08:59 UTC 
Same issue with Bluetooth Xaomi MiMouse - buttons work but pointer doesn't move.
Comment 4 Andrew Hutchings 2018-09-14 19:38:47 UTC 
Also affects me with the Kensington Expert Wireless. Trackball buttons work but no movement. Downgraded to 4.17 for now.
Comment 5 Laura Abbott 2018-09-14 21:41:06 UTC 
I queued up the patch, should be in the 4.18.8 build (bug should get updated when that happens)
Comment 6 Ed Greshko 2018-09-15 23:58:19 UTC 
OK.  I hope that happens sooner than later.  My injured wrist isn't happy using a regular mouse.
Comment 7 Ed Greshko 2018-09-17 07:54:46 UTC 
I see

kernel-4.18.8-200.fc28.x86_64.rpm
kernel-core-4.18.8-200.fc28.x86_64.rpm
kernel-devel-4.18.8-200.fc28.x86_64.rpm
kernel-modules-4.18.8-200.fc28.x86_64.rpm
kernel-modules-extra-4.18.8-200.fc28.x86_64.rpm

are available in koji.  When can we expect the corresponding kernel-headers?
Comment 8 Ed Greshko 2018-09-17 11:03:34 UTC 
FYI, I just now tested kernel-4.18.8-200 and my Kensington Expert Mouse Wireless Trackball now works as expected.
