           Summary: double click select text not working
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: jonj at atwk.com


Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.6.1) 
OS:                Linux

I'm running ubuntu maverick. I installed kubuntu desktop with gdm to see if kde
4.6.1 is ready to return (switched to gmome until kde4 was coocked more. Nice,
want to switch, but select text with mouse double click doesn't work in chrome
or firefox, but works in  konsole and kate. If I login with gnome, it works in
chrome and firefox.

I tried different mice, reinstalling kubuntu desktop, removing ~/.kde, change
mouse setting to double click, and searching every config I can find.  I went
and downloaded the kubuntu iso, created a startup disk on  thumb drive and
booted (try kubuntu). I ran firefox and double click select text doesn't work.

This seems to be some default setting some where or a bug. I searched and 
don't fine anyone else having the problem, but it's only been out a short time.

If anyone can tell me where to look (files, xev, xinput, etc.) I can script a
workaround fix.

Thank for any advise,

Jon
