I get the same thing on my Mac if I attempt to 'quick scroll' with the trackpad. No pretty, but that is how it works. > > James McKenzie > As it turns out, somehow the mouse driver was in an unstable state, because when I rebooted the system, the problem went away. What was happening was that when I scrolled FF or TB to the bottom with the thumb-wheel, and then scrolled up, one notch - it went into a behaviour that either changed something in another page (instead of scrolling up in the page where the mouse focus is) or opened something else in yet another pane. I think this is not normal behaviour, but I could be wrong. But for now, I do not have this problem after rebooting, so I will not pursue this issue any further, but interestingly - it only happens with FF & TB. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
