[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 728643] Re: Kinetic scrolling improperly interacts with modifier keys

I think this bug is affecting me because I cannot install ANY keyboard for my ThinkPad--but at this point I'm expecting Ubuntu to become more useless and troublesome with each so-called upgrade. Look, I'm just trying to do the upgrade, and the first question it asks is for a keyboard, but it does N

I'll just note that I'm still seeing it, but quite rarely now. In contrast, the new Firefox shutdown problem has become quite frequent... -- Crash to white screen of death (possibly Firefox?) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/159594 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubu

I don't object to your closing it, but I feel obliged to let you know you that I think this bug is still present in Koala. However, the release before Koala seems to be good enough, and that's where I've been staying with the machine for most of the time. I'm going to go ahead and install the new L

Should I do this from the J or K version? Or maybe wait for L? I have both J and K installed here, but Koala had so many problems with the sound card that I still regard it as experimental and I normally run from J. The problem has become quite infrequent under J, however, so I wasn't too worried

I finally got this bug into a can yesterday. I thought it had gone away, but it started showing up again, though very rarely. Then yesterday, I found a way to reproduce it. At least it worked twice in a row. If someone will tell me what to do, maybe it will be possible to diagnose it now. The situ

I'm afraid to say anything, since I haven't seen the bug in a long time. Let me knock on some wood before continuing... However, from looking at this thread now, I'm pretty sure you were talking to someone else, probably Bryce Harrington. Do you want me to try to run the same information? I don't

Just had another one, but that's only the second time since switching to Jackelope, so I feel like it's mostly cured. However, I'll say this was an especially nasty one to fix. The automatic recovery did not work and after several failed iterations, I remembered to try a manual fsck, which seems to
