I tripped over a somewhat-funky workaround: - Starting with no active sessions, log in from kdm as a different user from your usual account (e.g. guest).
- Once in that session, push the screen-lock button and select "different user" - Initiate a new session from there under your proper user id. At this point, mouse selection in konsole + mc worked for me! I was even able to switch back and exit guest without losing the function. There is clearly something different in KDE setup when starting from the user-switch dialog - but what? And how to fix things so this little dance is not required? I (along with several other folks) have reported this problem on the KDE konsole development mailing list, but not everyone is able to reproduce it. Anecdotally, it seems particular to Kubuntu KDE. -- konsole text selection not working w/ mouse-aware application https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/382162 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
