[Bug 90631] Re: imwheel causes heavy load, depending on setting of -f switch
I've been experiencing this issue as well. It occurs on my multi-user system. I am able to reproduce this: 1. Log in as user A 2. Via the user applet log in concurrently as user B 3. Log out as user B 4. Enter password of user A 5. Scroll mouse wheel and see the CPU utilisation rise. A quick workaround is Alt+F2 and running imwheel -k. I admit - a launcher for a script would be even quicker. I don't have time for debugging this but i don't see it as relevant as the development of imwheel has stopped 5 years ago. But at least I've found this bug report with a nice new alternative - btnx.

[Bug 90631] Re: imwheel causes heavy load, depending on setting of -f switch
I've switched to btnx and it seems to work much better. It's much easier to use and hasn't caused any problems so far. -- imwheel causes heavy load, depending on setting of -f switch https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/90631 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs -- universe-bugs mailing list universe-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs
[Bug 90631] Re: imwheel causes heavy load, depending on setting of -f switch
I've been using the -f switch successfully, but it seems that the problem is back with 9.04. I notice that my buttons aren't working correctly, and then looking at process list, I see Xorg taking up ~75% cpu with imwheel coming right behind at 25% or so. -- imwheel causes heavy load, depending on setting of -f switch https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/90631 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs -- universe-bugs mailing list universe-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs

[Bug 90631] Re: imwheel causes heavy load
do you mean the part about enabling/disabling the -f parameter switch? people using jaunty should try btnx and see if it does what they expect http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/btnx -- imwheel causes heavy load https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/90631 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs -- universe-bugs mailing list universe-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs
[Bug 90631] Re: imwheel causes heavy load
Yes Michael, that part indicates that imwheel can use too much resources, and if so, use the -f parameter. Now I am using it without problems. I know btnx, but for my media box system I'm using the more stark xbindkeys tool. -- imwheel causes heavy load https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/90631 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs -- universe-bugs mailing list universe-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs
