Seen's the same thing as https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/744580 but I don't think it is a problem in the browsers, since it affect all of them. My guess is that it's a Gnome bug that won't allow the mouse going out of the text area. I don't know if it's relative, but in programs that have a bar in the bottom, it start scrolling right after the pointer touch it. So my guess is that Gnome isn't allowing the pointer to go a bit deeper out of screen's edge, which is common in Windows for example. Maybe because of the pressure thing that brings the messages bar up. I didn't had this problem with Unity for example. If the screen is unmaximized, then it works normally. firefox: Installed: 39.0+build5-0ubuntu0.15.04.1 Candidate: 39.0+build5-0ubuntu0.15.04.1 Release: Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 15.04 Release: 15.04 Codename: vivid uname -r: 3.19.0-25-generic To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/chromium-browser/+bug/1479461/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~linux-traipu Post to : linux-traipu@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~linux-traipu More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
