I've tried the patch attached in the upstream report & can say it is only a partial fix at best. It does return some semblance of expected behavior but *only when one uses a 'glide' on the touchpad.* & only during the glide itself (ie. push up or down & release from touchpad . It that case the start is bad but the glide is good.
Otherwise it's as bad or worse than current in a more normal scrolling activity where finger maintains contact or a short series of push ups or downs. Not a suitable fix at all... To refresh - Not a factor in gnome* sessions, only affected is an ubuntu/unity session Most obvious apps are gedit on a text file of some size & in synaptic on a large package list, the default synaptic window certainly provides that. As far as Evolution, don't know, don't use, but if it was affected in any DE from orig. commit then it likely would also benefit from reverting the commit if a better fix is not forthcoming. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1184159 Title: [saucy] scrolling with a touchpad is now a bit jerky To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gtk/+bug/1184159/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
