[Bug 1739805]
> With the patch applied, on the General tab of Xfce Power Manager, there should be a "Brightness step count" field and an "Exponential" checkbox next to it. Weird, I'm not seeing those. But don't let that worry you, I'm sure the next proper release will have those setting show up. > I believe the effect of exponential steps is very much dependent on the characteristics of the LCD backlight. For my last two laptops, there are very visible differences between every step on the scale. Perhaps you can try reducing the number of steps to 6? Tried that. Funnily enough, it did nothing to change the lower end. Now I have 3 steps that do nothing and 3 steps that quickly increase brightness :) Seems like a large case of YMMV. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1739805 Title: Backlight tuning has not enough steps To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xfce4-power-manager/+bug/1739805/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1739805]
Thank you, Timothy Lee. This was long needed. I've applied attachment 8653 from comment 25 on top of xfce4-power-manager-1.6.5. I couldn't apply the newer patches due to the aforementioned code style changes. Where are the settings to be found? I can't find anything new in the Power Manager's setting screen. I ended up manually adding them with the settings editor. The exponential feature is really comfortable to use. However there's one caveat. It starts too slow, so that the first 3 of 10 steps have pretty much no effect at all. Is there a way to weigh it a little more towards the later steps?

So far it's been a "would be nice" but - at least these days :) - > we require a bit more information about use-cases and precise behaviours. > At least from my corner of mouse usage, the problem is that X has no scroll distance multiplier like Windows does. Scrolling is slow. Some applications have their own mechanisms to deal with that, like Firefox's hidden about:config preferences, or extensions for Chrome. Or you can also try to hack something together with imwheel. If it's a touchpad, you can reduce the distance needed to send one "scroll event". This makes scrolling faster, but also less accurate and more error-prone. Obviously none of these solutions are very good. The future is going towards smooth scrolling, which is an incredible experience. But while it's buttery smooth, it still doesn't solve the problem of configurable scroll speed/distance. Configurable acceleration on the input device driver level would solve this nicely. You could have fast scrolling when you need it, and even still retain slow but precise scrolling when you don't. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/619403 Title: [KDE] no option for mouse wheel acceleration To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/619403/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

For example, > scrolling events during alt-tab switch between applications but libinput > doesn't know that, it merely forwards the hardware events. You have a point there, libinput will always lack the semantic awareness and thus not provide an ideal solution. But I'll have to disagree. In an ideal world, you can offload acceleration to the app/toolkit. But since we have tons of legacy applications or developers unaware or unwilling to implement acceleration, they'll never receive the benefits. And even if they implement it, you get lots of duplicated efforts and functionality between apps. If acceleration depends on the toolkit/application, I fear it'll remain a toy for select applications on modern distros only. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/619403 Title: [KDE] no option for mouse wheel acceleration To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/619403/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

It would be nice to know "yes, we have it sorted" > or "no, we have no clue". Harald Judt is in charge of Thunar, but he appears to not have much spare time at the moment. I highly doubt anyone is working on porting Thunar to GTK3 at the moment, nor could I find anything about it in the mailing list (it would be wise to ask around tho). My impression is that many Xfce components are severely lacking manpower. Hence my suggestion. Porting to Python would kill multiple birds with one stone: - Port to GTK3 - Fix this crash - Fix other bugs - Easier to use language - Pull in more developers I think this is getting off-topic tho.

If a significant portion of it needs to be rewritten anyway, maybe it could be worth considering porting it to another language entirely. I agree that Python would be an excellent candidate. It would make development much easier and as you said, take care of the many papercuts that Thunar does indeed currently have. Plus, Thunar needs to be ported to GTK3 eventually anyway.

My bet is that since GTK3 applications use smooth scrolling (http://who-t.blogspot.de/2011/09/whats-new-in-xi-21-smooth- scrolling.html), they listen to different scroll events than the (correctly-inverted) GTK2-based ones. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1368402 Title: GTK3 apps doesn't understand natural scrolling in Xubuntu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xfce4-settings/+bug/1368402/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
