[Desktop-packages] [Bug 317025] Re: Scroll ball will not scroll horizontally
The problem still exists in Ubuntu 13.10. I was unable to do the requested test in the daily build because the daily build is not functional enough. Booting from the live CD, the mouse did no initially work. I had to unplug it and plug it back in before I could click on the try ubuntu button. Once Ubuntu started, I had no menus at all. I had two icons: Install Ubuntu and examples. Clicking on the examples icon brought up a file browser in a fixed sized window with no window decorations (no maximize, no minimize, no close button) I found a way to run firefox, it also had no window decorations. In an attempt to get a window up with a horizontal scroll bar, I tried typing a URL, and found that the keyboard was not working. At this point I realized I could do nothing usefull with this live CD, ejected it and hit the reset button on my computer. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-evdev in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/317025 Title: Scroll ball will not scroll horizontally Status in “xserver-xorg-input-evdev” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: This is similar to a bunch of other horizontal scroll does not work bugs, but I did not find any of those that were close enough that I could call this a duplicate.

DAP, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ . If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications-Accessories-Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-input-evdev REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful.
