Somehow, this issue seems related with nvidia driver. Using "nv" driver instead of "nvidia" seems to affect the area selection issue. Glx module must also be removed. I'm running Lucid 32 bits.
In /etc/X11/xorg.conf Section "Module" # Load "glx" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "Configured Video Device" # Driver "nvidia" Driver "nv" Option "NoLogo" "True" EndSection Not sure if we could call it "workaround", but it works for me (nv driver is enough for me). -- Unable to select scan area in preview window https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/370818 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
