Same issue. Unfortunately, i can't give more details because in my case Chromium stops scrolling without plugging anything in or out... Only after I load 3-4 webpages the next one does not react to the finger touch*. Returning to the previous webpages does not help, the touch does not work any longer. Restarting Chromium and loading the webpage where previously touch stopped usually allows to scroll (untill againg 3-4 webpages are changed).
*) "Finger touch does not work" means here the browser does not recognise finger as the finger. Clicking is still possible, but when I try scrolling, the text is marked instead of being scrolled. In other words, it considers the finger touch as a mouse pointer. Regarding the flag that Koen mentions, also same here: originally, when I installed 14.04, touch worked in Chromium "out of the box", as they say. But after some updates, can't tell which, it stopped. To get it back, I started adding the flag, even updated the start-up script to get it automatically. At the time, I filed a report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1526430 But about January this year, with yet another Chromium update, the problem described above appeared: touch scrolling works (only when Chromium is started with the flag pointing to the touch device!), but stops after a few clicks, as described above. I'm using Lenovo X220 tablet with Wacom touchscreen. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1583612 Title: touch-devices stops working after insert/remove other USB device To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1583612/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
