Re: Mouse click problems with firefox and firefox-esr (and Seamonkey)

When I select and drag text, it can randomly un-select it as if I have let go of the mouse and clicked elsewhere.. Just all sorts of stangeness. I never have a problem with moving the mouse cursor though. To say it's a nuisance is a bit of an understatement as I am now having to use chromium - which I detest, being a keen avoider of any google pish. For extra info, I am using XFCE. Does anyone have this issue? What is going on? I have this exact same problem with Seamonkey using cwm(1) on a ThinkPad T61. I've ran OpenBSD on this laptop for almost a decade now and it's never had this issue before 5.8. It's really very annoying but I've been living with it through 5.8, assuming it will be fixed in 5.9. Well I just upgraded to 5.9 the other day and was eager to see if it was fixed, but it exhibits the same annoying behavior. I don't know what to do or test. I run no ad-ons with Seamonkey. Slightly off-topic, I can't see the selection problem reported above. But I *can* confirm that upgrading (or making a fresh install rather) of either 5.8 or 5.9 can be problematic. http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc=146099054608491=2 @Nick: xfce and firefox-esr under 5.7 runs reasonably well. No patches, though. In my case, chromium on 5.8 and 5.9 is a non-starter (almost literally) disregarding the ethics.

If so, might be worth looking into other window managers... Yes, I did. awesome, and clutter(that comes with gnome. I actually installed the gnome DE to just to try this out). To no avail. Speculating, I'd say that the problem is in X. Where I don't know. But it might also be that xfce is involved somehow; both 5.8 and 5.9 uses xfce 4.12. IIRC, I installed both awesome and gnome without de-installing xfce. It is not completely unthinkable (although unlikely) that they share some common parts. Best regards /Birger

Hi Daniel, On 2016-04-15 20:11, Daniel Boyd wrote: I have noticed a pattern lately. When I open LibreOffice or Evince, Firefox crashes -- like pretty regularly. I switched from using Calc to Gnumeric and that has helped some, but having my browser crash 10-15 times a day is not good for productivity.

In addition, the LibreOffice 5 build in 5.9 crashed so much on me last week as to not be usable.

Re: chromium 48 (64-bit) crashes on 5.9-beta and xfce-4.12
Hello, thanks for your prompt answer. I did not try without the uBlock Origin extension and I've read about the problem you describe. As per your suggestion I will resubmit the this entire thread to the bugs list. Best regards /birger On 2016-02-03 20:57, Mariano Baragiola wrote: Hello.

This crashing behaviour occurred also on obsd-5.8 and it was one of my reasons for switching from 5.8 to 5.9-beta. Have you tried opening them without uBlock Origin? There was a known error in 5.8 amd64 with Chromium and uBlock Origin, but the crash victim was the extension and not the browser, at least on my case (I found some people saying the entire browser was crashing). Maybe it is related in some way. Btw, I'm no longer experiencing the problem in 5.8-stable amd64. PS: This thread probably belongs to b...@openbsd.org. Cheers.
Re: smplayer 14.9 gets muted when moving or resizing windows in xfce 4.12
Hi Matthew Good point. Sound is muted and indeed playback is paused. Maybe it's the pause that cause the muting. On further investigation in xfce, under the condition that the checkboxes 'Hide content of windows [when moving] or [when resizing]' are ticked muting and pausing occurs when windows are moved/resized using mouse or keyboard. Furthermore, moving/resizing when using smplayer for playing a video file results in a mute and pause. Playing an audio only file results in no mute or pause. Window wise there is no canvas area but only the window decorations when playing the audio file. Using mplayer from a terminal window and moving/resizing any window then both the video file and the audio file gets muted and paused. /birger On 2016-01-19 13:50, cho...@jtan.com wrote: Luciano Rottava da Silva writes: Hello, Same here with fvwm2-2.6.5 (installed via pkg) and 5.8-release. But in my case it happens when moving or *resizing* any window (xterm, firefox, etc.) if I keep mouse pressed doing any of above event "long enough". Looks like this issue is not directly related to wm or desktop environment. Are you sure it's *muting* and not *pausing*? ISTR from back when I used fvwm that this behaviour was caused by mouse drags freezing communication with X, causing all X clients to pause until the mouse dropped. I didn't ever fix it, sadly. Being one of those things that Shouldn't Even Be Possible I just chalked it down to X being X, where that statement is invalid. This was not on OpenBSD, by the way, but I doubt that matters. Matthew
Re: smplayer 14.9 gets muted when moving or resizing windows in xfce 4.12
Hi Jan, I can (almost) confirm the behaviour you describe. Logging into awesome and starting mplayer in xterm muting occurs when *resizing* the xterm window (or any other window). Moving a window does not seem to affect sound output.

The problem is repeatable. When using vlc for playing a file and the boxes are ticked as above then there is no muting.
