 An inconsistency that came up while I was working on
 something is the mouse wheel behavior. GIMP uses shift+scroll wheel to
 zoom, Inkscape Ctrl+mousewheel. GIMP uses Alt+mousewheel to pan
 horizontally, Inkscape uses Shift+mousewheel. I've filed this as
 http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detailaid=1115612group_id=93438atid=604306

Correction: GIMP uses Ctrl+wheel to pan horizontally, not Alt.

 According to the GNOME Human Interface Guidelines Inkscape is using the
 preferred behaviour (and although I would need to double check I am
 reasonably sure this behaviour is consistant with Apple and Microsoft
 guidelines).

 http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/2.0/input.html#mouse-buttons
 Ctrl-scrollwheel-up should zoom into the window or control under the mouse
 pointer, and Ctrl-scrollwheel-down should zoom out. Zooming in this way
 should not move keyboard focus to the window or control being zoomed.

Perhaps we should just swap the Shift and Ctrl modifiers for display
scrolling to be consistent with the HIG and across graphics apps.

 Bye, Tino.

I have also tried installing GTK 2.4 on SuSE 9.1 without success.  I 
have not tried 2.6 yet.  SuSE 9.1 comes with GTK 2.2.4.  Many things 
stop working when GTK 2.4 is installed and it appears that many 
applications would need to be rebuilt to get things working again.  I 
am considering installing SuSE 9.2 as it comes with GTK 2.4.  Wish 
there was a better way to deal with these libraries.  But again don't 
stop moving forward on  my account.

I was able to install GTK 2.4 from usr-local-bin.org, but they don't
have 2.6 up at this time.  I recall having a lot of problems trying to
compile either 2.4 or 2.6.
