Re: home plugin issue with drag events

[Bill Filler <bill filler canonical com>]

Hi Bob,
Thanks for the info. I don't think this is where the trouble lies  
though as I was seeing the same problem running in Xephry on my  
desktop (no touchscreen involved). Another problem I'm having is the  
home plugin no longer seems to be receiving mouse scroll wheel  
events, even after changing the CLICK_TIMEOUT. Any ideas on this?
