        <pre>That's a problem with the scroll valuators in the servers and how they react to
a device change, similar to what I described here:

    </head><body>Sorry Peter, but I am confused; why are you assigning the bug to synaptics? I think the issue is with the evdev driver since synaptics works with Libinput <br>
<br>
I can&#39;t tell if it is a recent issue or it has been there forever. <br>
Anyway, what should I bisect? Evdev or synaptics? <br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On January 16, 2017 12:50:52 AM EST, bugzilla-daemon@freedesktop.org wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">

        <pre>huh, true. verified it works with the libinput driver. That's good news, should
make it easier to fix. has this always been around or is it recent breakage? if
the latter, can you bisect to the broken commit please?</pre>
