Public bug reported: Steps: 1) start firefox 45.0.1 for ubuntu canonical 2) using an onscreen keyboard like "onboard", type a partial url that's in your history = No dropdown list of suggested url's appears
Notes: 1) Typing the same characters on the physical keyboard produces the expected dropdown list 2) Safe mode or disabling all extensions makes no difference 3) Occasionally the dropdown list may work once immediately after startup but never more than once 4) Firefox 45 broke Windows 8 onscreen keyboard support (related?) https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/45.0/releasenotes/ ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: firefox 45.0.1+build1-0ubuntu0.14.04.2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-37.64-generic 3.13.11.7 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-37-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia AddonCompatCheckDisabled: False ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.19 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: flamin 2342 F.... pulseaudio BuildID: 20160325004402 Channel: Unavailable CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Mon Apr 11 23:21:37 2016 ExecutablePath: /usr/lib/firefox/firefox ForcedLayersAccel: False IfupdownConfig: # interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8) auto lo iface lo inet loopback IncompatibleExtensions: English (South Africa) Language Pack - langpack-en...@firefox.mozilla.org English (GB) Language Pack - langpack-en...@firefox.mozilla.org Default - {972ce4c6-7e08-4474-a285-3208198ce6fd} InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-07-09 (642 days ago) InstallationMedia: sonar 13.10 - Release amd64 IpRoute: default via 192.168.0.30 dev eth0 proto static 192.168.0.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.0.32 metric 1 IwConfig: eth0 no wireless extensions. lo no wireless extensions.
