I confirm this patch fixes this bug (at least for Benjamin Otte (Redhat) and me :) ).
If you want to test this patch, a version of this gtk+3-0 package is currently being built on my ppa:matttbe/ppa I've registered a merge proposal: https://code.launchpad.net/~matttbe/gtk/949414/+merge/98353 (in order to merge this branch lp:~matttbe/gtk/949414 with lp:~ubuntu- desktop/gtk/ubuntugtk3 but I don't know where I've to push this branch because it seems lp:ubuntu/gtk+3.0 is not up to date :-/ ) This is why I also propose a debdiff to quickly upload this bug (@Ubuntu devs: I hope it's easier for you ; I don't want to give you more work ;) ) ** Patch added: "git_touchpad_like_mouse.debdiff" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+3.0/+bug/949414/+attachment/2902239/+files/git_touchpad_like_mouse.debdiff -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gtk+3.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/949414 Title: Some GTK+3 events are not emitted when using a touchpad (but are with a mouse) Status in elementary OS: Triaged Status in GTK+ GUI Toolkit: Confirmed Status in “gtk+3.0” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “gtk+3.0” source package in Precise: In Progress Bug description: In GTK applications menu items are not always highlighted on mouse over (orange background). 12.04 - 20120307 When using touchpad, the menu items are not highlighted.
