2 Patches are now on xorg-devel, http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel/2013-November/039220.html Hi Carlos, I tried these patches. Coupled with the Gtk+ fix, this does indeed fix the various scrolling issues! Hopefully the patches will be reviewed/accepted soon. Thanks a million for addressing this! Do you have a test case for this? I knocked up a simple one with two XI2 clients, one creating a window with enter/leave on a window, one with enter/leave on the button grab on the root window. Neither client gets an event and a printf in the server shows nothing is written onto the wire either (only the button event to activate the grab). If I change to an active grab + ungrab, I get the events correctly. Is there an ETA on when the patches are going to be merged into master? Please see the follow-up post here: http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel/2013-December/039346.html Since the proposed patches to X have been rejected, what can be done here to fix this properly? IMHO, this is quite an annoying regression. Just in case it's not obvious what the effect is, there are steps to reproduce it at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+3.0/+bug/1240957: you just have to run two apps like gnome-terminal and nautilus and try using the mouse wheel to scroll them. nautilus no longer scrolls with the mouse wheel unless it has focus, whereas gnome-terminal always scrolls. Scrolling without requiring focus has always been one of the nice things about X desktops, and now it's inconsistent and broken. -- GitLab Migration Automatic Message -- This bug has been migrated to freedesktop.org's GitLab instance and has been closed from further activity.
