[Bug 1200829] Re: Regression: Enabling typical bindings in "Desktop-based Viewport Switching" breaks scrollwheel scrolling in some windows with a usb mouse on a laptop

 

After some debugging and looking over the vpswitch plugin code, I really
fail to understand how this is the fault of the plugin.  When the
binding is in place, the code does some checking to make sure the mouse
pointer is over the desktop window and if not, just return false.
Nothing of significance has changed in this plugin for some time.

I tried your test-scroll PPA and it does indeed fix this issue, so that
is even more evidence that this is a Gtk issue.  It seems
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=703062 is the real root of
this issue.  The patch that fixed that has been merged upstream and we
need to get it into Ubuntu as well.
