Description Julius B. 2018-10-26 10:10:27 UTC
Description of problem:
On my Thinkpad S1 yoga, the "Reverse scrolling" option does only work until the system is suspended. After waking up, the scrolling direction has been reset.
The option is still set in kcm-touchpad, but the scrolling direction will be reset to "traditional" (non-reversed).

The following warning is shown: "Active settings don't match saved settings. You currently see saved settings."

The saved settings show the option being enabled, while the active settings show it disabled.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
plasma-systemsettings.x86_64       5.13.5-1.fc29              @anaconda
kernel.x86_64                      4.18.13-300.fc29           @updates-testing               


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open kcm_touchpad, enable reverse vertical scrolling
2. Verify that it works correctly
3. Suspend and wakeup

Actual results:
1. Note that vertical scrolling is not reverse anymore
2. Open kcm_touchpad, see that the "active" settings show the option as disabled, while the "saved" settings show it as enabled.
3. Disable, save, enable again, save to enable to option again.

Expected results:
1. The option stays enabled and active

I've also noticed that the setting will reset when plugging in a USB mouse.

Comment 2 Julius B. 2018-10-26 12:07:10 UTC
Seems like it's an upstream bug in KDE that affects several people: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=398999

Comment 3 Ben Cotton 2019-10-31 20:37:24 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 29 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 29 on 2019-11-26.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a
Fedora 'version' of '29'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 29 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 4 Ben Cotton 2019-11-27 19:38:38 UTC
Fedora 29 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2019-11-26. Fedora 29 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
