Does this happen systematically or just when the document is in the background? I noticed too that I can not scroll anymore when the pointer is over the page but evince is not in focus. This works with any other app, and used to work before the last big evince update.

The wheel works perfectly in other programs, such as Adobe Reader (acroread), Firefox or gnome- terminal. A few additional details I noticed: - The builtin touchpad in my Dell Latitude E6400 *does* work for scrolling in evince (when using the scrolling area at the right margin of the pad). - The USB mouse's wheel creates the following events when recorded with xev (same as the touchpad's): ButtonPress event, serial 37, synthetic NO, window 0x5a00001, root 0x255, subw 0x0, time 1888376, (122,66), root:(753,436), state 0x0, button 5, same_screen YES ButtonRelease event, serial 37, synthetic NO, window 0x5a00001, root 0x255, subw 0x0, time 1888376, (122,66), root:(753,436), state 0x1000, button 5, same_screen YES ButtonPress event, serial 37, synthetic NO, window 0x5a00001, root 0x255, subw 0x0, time 1889640, (122,66), root:(753,436), state 0x0, button 4, same_screen YES ButtonRelease event, serial 37, synthetic NO, window 0x5a00001, root 0x255, subw 0x0, time 1889640, (122,66), root:(753,436), state 0x800, button 4, same_screen YES ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.10 Package: evince 3.10.0-0ubuntu2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.11.0-14.21-generic 3.11.7 Uname: Linux 3.11.0-14-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia ApportVersion: 2.12.5-0ubuntu2.1 Architecture: amd64 Date: Sun Nov 17 23:32:05 2013 InstallationDate: Installed on 2012-07-06 (499 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Release amd64 (20120425) MarkForUpload: True SourcePackage: evince UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to saucy on 2013-10-17 (31 days ago) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/1252099/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
