That is that GNU Emacs has nothing todo with KDE. And to remove GNU Emacs, the most used editor for programming, TeX, and LaTeX editing is simply a nogo. If you think this is a bug of GNU Emacs you may report it upstream, that is to use the Send Bug Report... in the Help pull down menu. Nevertheless before doing this the KDE people should check this. IMHO this is a bug in KDE as it should *not* make text editing worse with such effects but simply disable this effect for well known text editors like GNU and X Emacs. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The difference is emacs 23.1 on OS 11.3 in comparision to emacs 23.2 on OS 11.4. Just complain this upstream that is use

Help -> Send Bug Report...

as I'll not go into the source code of emacs anymore, due lack of time. Also I do not use metacity nor KDE nor GNOME ;)

It's already reported and fixed upstream https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32734 And it affects way more than emacs. It's something we've done (or not done) in the backport that's caused it to re-manifest. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Reopening because the resolution is wrong. This bug is reported against openSUSE 11.4 but isn't fixed there. If we're not fixing it for some reason, it needs to be marked WONTFIX.

With such an argument I guess you would need to reopen 99% of all openSUSE bugs and close them as WONTFIX.

The bug still exists in 11.4. It's a lie to close it as fixed when it isn't. If we're not going to fix something, then WONTFIX is the correct resolution

Once more, if anybody would like to do the maintenance work, please go ahead and reopen the bug. Otherwise please let this bug closed. Thanks.

I already did 99% of it for you here: https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=home%3Ajejb1%3Axorg-x11-driv... All that has to happen is to release the updated package with the openSUSE-11.4 updates -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
