gnome-terminal / vte changed its behavior around that time. There was also quite a bit of confusion caused by a downstream ubuntu patch and removal also around that time.
I'm not sure what's 14.04's behavior, but in newer Ubuntus (e.g. 16.04) you can disable alternate screen scrolling with the DECRESET 1007 escape sequence, that is: echo -ne '\e[?1007l' Maybe it already works in 14.04, please try it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1688528 Title: gnome-terminal with screen interprets mouse wheel events as up/down To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-terminal/+bug/1688528/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
