[Bug 803348] Re: In Firefox, scrolling and then pressing Ctrl causes zoom

2015-09-04 Thread Dominic Chambers
Yes, this is happening for me on any app that supports zooming using scrolling and a key modifier, like Nautilus, Chrome & Firefox. I'm using an XPS 13 (9343). Does anybody know the correct component (e.g. Gnome or Synaptics?) to raise this bug against? -- You received this bug notification

Okay, looks like this is unfixable until the switch to libinput (Wayland): * https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=76094 The workaround until then is to disable coasting: ``` Option "CoastingSpeed" "0" ``` or to make it part of your muscle memory not to do it I guess :-). **

That's a clever trick, being able to downgrade dependencies like that. Any pointers on how one goes about doing it, since even if I add 'trusty' sources to `/etc/apt/sources.list' then I still only see a single version available to install if I run `apt-show-versions xserver- xorg`? Anyway, great

+1 to this bug being a high. Adding more features while bugs like this exist is why Linux continues to be barely usable as a desktop environment. Experienced on Ubuntu Gnome 14.04 with only one keyboard layout installed. Experiencing the randomly switching variety of the bug rather than the

I consider this a serious bug as Alacarte is the only way to add graphical launchers in Ubuntu, and before I found that bug I just kept adding more and more launcher for the same thing (hoping to fix an issue in the first launcher I created), but of course it never helped. Are people also finding

okay, so this is my understanding of how things should work: 1. on a local network without DHCP, resolv.conf is configured manually by the user 2. on a local network with DHCP, resolv.conf is set once at connection time, but then may be updated each time the DHCP lease is renewed 3. on a remote
