Description of problem: mouse wheel not working in mcc packages list Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): drakconf-13.22-1.mga7 How reproducible: every time (and since 2019-08 https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12453#c31) Steps to Reproduce: 1. select a package category in the left panel 2. browse the list on the right panel with the mouse 3. the list scroll a bit, and then stops. *. the list should scroll all along Workaround: . need to use the scrollbar . surprisingly, I found holding the third button of my Logitech mouse while wheeling, makes the scroll behave as expected. This mouse in driven as universal (PS/2 or USB). NB: in any other app, mouse wheel behave as usual.
Is your system up-to-date? What desktop are you using? The reference above implies Plasma, but that bug was for Xfce. Trying this on M7 x64 with a "‎PS/2 Generic Wheel Mouse", under Mate, I cannot reproduce the problem using Add/Remove Software directly, or the same from Mageia Control Centre. All panes scroll fully with the mouse wheel, particularly the packages list in the RH pane for a category selected in the LH pane. Every one I tried worked all the way; the longest list I found was System/X11. Is your system French? If so, please try installing the 'ibus-gtk' package. It is benign. I will try this under Plasma, but only report back if that shows the problem described, i.e. different from Mate.

My system is French, up to date. This is a M7 updated from M6. I have checked on a spare M7 (old fresh cauldron7 not up to date). The bug is not showing. Back on my system, I have installed ibus-gtk, and it does not change the bug. As far as I remember, my bug is from the begining of updated M6->M7. I have tried with another USB mouse, and it's almost the same. Now, I can precise that any mouse button pressed while wheeling, make the scroll fine. Then I'm thinking something let the focus vanish, but if a button is pressed... What could it be ?
And I use Plasma desktop

I've just noticed that mouse wheel gives the scroll when hovering columns heads. I'm not sure this was true before, but this can explain "3. the list scroll a bit, and then stops." in comment #1 Previous described behaviour is still the same
I cannot recreate the problem either, in a system that started as a Mageia 3 installation, upgraded each release and currently running Mageia 7 x86_64. I have all available desktop environments installed but usually run plasma. The command "rpm -qa|grep -v mga7" should show some gpg-pubkey and any third party packages installed. Anything else should be considered for removal to ensure old packages are not causing problems.

Created attachment 12024 [details] rpm -qa | grep -v mga7 | sort After the command # rpm -qa | grep -v mga7 | sort I have to remove all *.mga6 and then I will tell
The behaviour you report, including the workarounds, is very consistent with bug 12453. Does Plasma have a similar setting to the one that fixed the bug for Xfce?

From that list, keep the gpg-pubkey*, wine-gecko, wine64-gecko, skypeforlinux (third party), windows95 ??, should be kept. The lib and lib64 packages can be deleted unless they are required dependencies of one of a wanted package such as skype.
# for p in `cat mg6-removal.lst` ; do urpme $p ; done ; # urpme --auto-orphans # rpm -qa|grep -v mga7|sort gpg-pubkey-80420f66-4d4fe123 gpg-pubkey-df7587c3-576a5c23 skypeforlinux-8.15.0.4-1 wine64-gecko-2.47-1.mga6 wine-gecko-2.47-1.mga6 Some mga7 packages were removed, but I do not bother about this. After reboot, the bug is still there. I logged on Xfce with another profile, and could not reach the XFCE settings like in https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12453#c28 Indeed, I'm running compiz ! The following command allowed me to reach the setting. $ xfwm4 --replace But, without compiz, I do not need that setting set to get normal behaviour. So, I would charge Compiz side effects for this bug.
Mageia 7 is EOL since July 1st 2021. There will not have any further bugfix for this release. You are encouraged to upgrade to Mageia 8 as soon as possible. @reporter, if this bug still apply with Mageia 8, please let us know it. @packager, if you work on the Mageia 7 version of your package, please check the Mageia 8 package if issue is also present. In this case, please fix the Mageia 8 version instead. This bug report will be closed OLD if there is no further notice within 1st September 2021.
The system has been upgraded to Mageia 8. This bug is still applying to Mageia 8, for instance LXDE+Compiz. If Plasma was selected, a black screen with a mouse in the only thing visible. As a reminder Compiz is not supported, further less with Plasma.

We stopped supporting Mageia 8 almost 8 months ago https://blog.mageia.org/en/2023/12/30/mageia-8-end-of-life/ That means we also stopped fixing Mageia 8 bugs and that this bug report needs to be closed, regardless of whether it was fixed for Mageia 8 or not. If this particular bug did not get fixed for Mageia 8, then we do regret that. If this issue is still present in Mageia 9 or cauldron, then please reopen this report, write a comment and adjust the "Version:" field. If you are not yet a member of one or our teams, then please consider becoming one. https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Contributing Mageia is a community project, meaning that we, the users, make Mageia together. The more active contributors we have, the more bug reports will get fixed. Besides, being active in a team can be very rewarding. It was and is certainly rewarding to me :-D
Status: NEW => RESOLVEDResolution: (none) => OLD
This bug is gone in Mageia 9. At least since the update from 8 ; as this was done several months ago, I now cannot figure out if I noticed the change then or not.
