The bug is that libsdl sometimes (unfortunately too often) loses track of which modifier keys are pressed. In my patch (which I think Leo committed to main), I added code to _stop_ the arrow keys from doing anything when additional modifiers (like Alt, etc.) are pressed. This change was to avoid bad accidents I experienced due to modifiers being pressed while trying to type key combinations used by my window manager. For example, before this change, every time I would use my window manager's “Control-Alt-ArrowKey” combination to switch into the virtual desktop glob2 was running in, glob2 would end up getting scrolled internally. The bug is clearly in libsdl, but perhaps until the libsdl bug is fixed the code should be changed to allow the arrow keys to work even if additional modifiers are pressed. With my patch (which I think is in main), if libsdl gets confused about what modifiers are pressed, this can cripple the arrow keys until glob2 is restarted. -- Joe > On 7/4/07, Kai Antweiler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > OK, I don't have the scrolling problem in Bradleys latest release. > So forget my last mail.
