[Bug 1436039] Re: List of desktop environmets spills off bottom of screen when it is too long - Cannot scroll through list

 

** Description changed:

  At the logon screenwhen I boot Ubuntu (Trusty Tahr, 14.04.2 LTS), I am
  able to choose from multiple desktop environments by clicking the button
  to the right of the user name. I have many desktop environments
  installed, though, so this list is so long tha it spills off the bottom
  edge of the screen. The absence of a scrollbar, mouse-wheel support, or
  the ability to browe the list using arrow keys makes it so that the
  desktop environments near the bottom of the list cannot be accessed.
+ 
+ EDIT:
+ This may be the same problem as bug #1068605.

  EDIT:
  This may beis the same problem as bug #1068605, but for a newer ubuntu version (and with no OK button, just options off the screen). 

  The obvious solution would be scrollbar and mousewheel support.
