This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 19 development cycle. Changing version to '19'. (As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 19 development cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 19 End Of Life. Thank you.) More information and reason for this action is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping/Fedora19 Just wanted to add that this preference is standard in Ubuntu and it comes in really handy. However, maybe an upstream solution would be more adequate (e.g. as a setting in Gnome https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=666998). closing this as WONTFIX. we're using the upstream defaults, the configuration option is there for those who want to enable it and long-term it's best to have this as part of the Gnome UI anyway. Peter, who is upstream? Would you mind to forward this issue into appropriate upstream tracker and reference it here?

Note that with: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/LibinputForXorg We will have middle button scrolling on trackpoints by default, and it will even work with the emulated middle button on the X240 / T440 thinkpads. (In reply to Hans de Goede from comment #5) Wow, that is wonderful news! What is the ETA (since it was already approved by FESCo)?

Hmm, that is a good question actually, I assume with ETA you mean when will it land in rawhide right? I would like to say soonish. I need to coordinate actually landing the change with some other people, I'll put that on my todo list. (In reply to Hans de Goede from comment #7) > I assume with ETA you mean when will it land in rawhide right? Correct > I'll put that on my todo list. Thanks. I'll be happy to test this particular feature ;) (In reply to Vít Ondruch from comment #4) > Peter, who is upstream? Would you mind to forward this issue into > appropriate upstream tracker and reference it here? bit lat here, sorry: upstream is the xorg bugzilla on bugs.freedesktop.org, component Input/evdev. Note that I'm the upstream maintainer too, so if you file a bug I'll just swap hats and start arguing with the same arguments ;) fwiw, we enabled libinput as a default in F22+ now (for new installations), the xorg-x11-drv-libinput driver is available in F21 and later. |
