I just got an automatic download for Firefox 3.6.3 on 9.10, and I tell you it is murdered on my Dell Vostro A860 laptop. We sure don't want anything like that shipped on Lucid.
I will also be looking at it as best as I can. Originally, Firefox would scroll down the page well, with Page up or Page down, or up and down arrows. Then, I started having problems with Digg. If the cursor touched a "share" icon, it wouldn't move and I had to reclick the page to scroll at all. Then, it got worse like now. I downloaded a scroll smoother, and though it still worked clumsily, it started working again. Last week, when I got an update note, it changed from 3.6.2 to 3.6.3. Since then it has been so bad I am thinking of installing Opera which should be not needed. I tried Smooth scroller again. I tried turning on and off auto scrolling and smoothing, in the preferences menu. Down arrow takes to the bottom, then it won't go up again. Page down moves one little jump, then you need to click the page again, then one more little jump. with the cursor in the up/down bar at the right, it sometimes goes up and down, but that means when I look at a snapshot sequence, I have to keep moving the arrow back and forth, a lot of work on a laptop with sense pad. Sometimes, even with auto-scrolling turned off, when I click on the up/down bar, it takes off running all the way to the end as if I had autoscrolling on, and nothing I do will stop it. As I said, I will do my best on Beta, but if something like this gets out in Lucid, we are going to get a lot of negative reviews, and a lot of newbs are going to walk away. As I said, I will do my best on 10.04 to make sure nothing like this gets shipped. It is disgusting. -- Ubuntu-qa mailing list Ubuntu-qa@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-qa
