            Bug ID: 393841
           Summary: Scrolling is broken in chat windows
           Product: telepathy
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: text-ui
          Assignee: kde-telepathy-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: kdesux at mailinator.com
  Target Milestone: Future

As of some months ago, scrolling is broken in a way that severely limits the
use of the telepathy chat window. It used to be that the window always showed
the new content. However, this no long happens. Instead, whenever there is new
text, the scrollbar moves up and I must scroll down to see it. This makes it
very hard to keep up with the conversation as I'm likely to not see the last
couple lines since I haven't scrolled while typing.

This is a bad joke. does anybody even use this application? The current version
is not selectable and it feels abandoned, just keeps gaining bugs and no
features or fixes.

Also, as a number of other KDE apps, the scrollbars are rendered wrong
(unstyled light grey rectangle on ultralight grey background, not using the
theme at all) on the window, so I can't even see the damn scrollbar to know it
needs to be scrolled. I just have to try scrolling all the time and see if more
text appears. This wrongly rendered scrollbar has been an issue for something
like a year and keeps cropping up in more KDE applications.
