Hi all, I installed Pharo on a linux box yesterday. Some very strange mouse behaviour. In my workspace whenever I left clicked it selected an area and then after minimising and maximising it instead just bought up the System menu. I had downloaded the VM and sources file but for image and changes I used a file that I have been working on previously in Windows. Is that the problem? -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Ubuntu-tp3334436p3334436.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

maybe you meant 'right-clicking'? just go to settings and change the 'swap mouse buttons' setting. See if it can help.

I have noticed similar strange mouse menu behaviour when CAPS LOCK is on. This is the same with Squeak. I am using both on Linpus, a Fedora derivative. Could this be your problem? I used to get very frustrated and wondered about image corruption. Then I kicked myself to see the little CAPS LOCK light!

Search for: "disable caps lock in linux" Plenty of sites tell you how-to, including for Ubuntu. -dae
It's not caps lock. I think it went wrong when I used the Collapse all windows menu item. Now I can see a number of open windows as icons. Left or right clicking the icon brings up the World menu. I can open a new browser or workspace but if I minimise them then I can't get back. I can also click Expand all windows in the Windows menu and each window flashes into place before being minimised again.
