Public bug reported:
This is a bug affecting multiple applications- 6 at this writing. It is
difficult to explain. It also seems to be getting worse.
So far: GIMP, Inkscape, XFCE SCreenshot, GPRename, AviDemux, and
PyRenamer.
Symptoms: if a program has an "input" field box with up/down arrow icons
to enter a number of something, the arrow icons next to the input field
box should increase/decrease in increments of "1". They do NOT.
When pressing the up/down arrow icon instead of increments of "1" as it
should be- the programs display a bizarre range of numbers. Instead of
going to "2, 3, 4..." etc, it may go to 10,000 or something.
GPRename when using "insert/delete" goes to a specific number: when I
press the up arrow it goes to "256" each and every time. If I press the
down arrow it goes to "-256" every time. The other programs are hit and
miss, and the numbers when the up/down arrows are pressed are all over
the place
I CAN enter a number in the box manually, but doing it this way is a
real pain.
This is a fairly fresh install of Xubuntu 14.04 LTS, and this seems to
have happened since the last kernel upgrade. Things were working ok
before that.
This is so bad it is rendering this OS unusable. I had none of these
problems with Xubuntu 12.04, 12.10, 13.04 and I used all the same
software.
