[SOLVED] Chromium zooming issue

I've been experiencing a very annoying "feature" of chromium lately - unintentional zooming of web pages.
How to reproduce:
Scroll (with mouse etc) a web page in chromium
Stop scrolling
Open a new tab
Probably this all boils down to the introduction of <ctrl>+<scroll> zooming in chromium, as I experience similar behavior in firefox. However, I don't think zooming should occur because when I press ctrl to open a new tab, I have let go of the scrolling. Is there a workaround for this issue (including how to completely disable zooming in chromium)?

I guess your definition of "solved" is different from most...
Make an appointment at the genius bar of your local Apple Store and get an out of warranty replacement.

Solving Centro hotsync issues without a hard reset

I have a Centro (sprint). I am running Windows Vista. I cannot connect with hotsync. Whenever I try, I get the following message -- "The connection between your handheld computer and the desktop could not be established. Please check your setup and try again." I went through the article referenced at the beginning of this forum and performed all the suggestions (reloaded Palm desktop 6.2, the outlook 2007 update, soft restart, etc.). I took it to a repair center and they stated the ONLY way to fix it was to do a hard reset which would lose all info. Since I can't hotsync, I haven't been able to backup the phone which means I'll lose everything. I'm hoping there are some other suggestions I could try. It seems contrary that the only way to solve a hotsync issue and save your data is to do a hard reset and lose all your data. Thanks.
Post relates to: Centro (Sprint)

Is your Vista 64 bit or 32 bit?
Try performing a warm reset of your device... Take out the battery press and hold the UP button insert the battery while holding the UP navigator button wait until you see set date and time then release the button. Connect the phone back to the PC and try perform a hotsync.

Facetime is not in the App store. It is part of the iOS. You access Facetime on the phone via the contact section. Facetime needs to be activated in Settings. The only reason you may not have it is if you purchased the device in an area where Facetime is prohibited by law.

Did you have an Adobe trial running on this same computer before? Maybe your previous trial was used for 3 weeks and then you uninstalled it? If so, you're only eligible for a 1 week trial on this computer.

Links don't work zoomed, issue not solved?

I've been waiting for months on this issue;
when zoomed, zoomed to anything, links don't work in Safari.
I was told months ago, something is wrong with Safari toolkit.
I just updated and issue remains.
(just amazing)
<Edited by Host>

HI,
Try maintenance... the link works perfect here; Safari 4.0.5 SL 10.6.2
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache. When you are done with that...
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 5 buttons and click Reset.
Go here for trouble shooting *3rd party plugins or input managers* which might be causing the problem. Safari: Add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
Since you are running Snow Leopard, *make sure Safari is opening in 32-bit mode, not 64.* Right or control click the Safari icon in the Applications folder, then click: Get Info In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle next to General so it faces down. Select 32 bit mode. Also, (in that same window) *make sure Safari is NOT running in Rosetta.*
  Web pages now include a small icon or 'favicon' which is visible in the address bar and next to bookmarks. These icons take up disk space and slow Safari down. It is possible to erase the icons from your computer and start fresh. *To delete Safari's icon cache using the Finder, open your user folder, navigate to ~/Library/Safari/ and move this file "webpageIcons.db to the Trash.*

[SOLVED] Strange graphical issues in Chromium

I haven't tested this in any other browsers, so I'm not sure what the root cause of the problem is.
Symptom: http://i.imgur.com/88ek7BU.png
It only happens sometimes, but images (and sometimes links etc) are mangled like this ad. For links, it's sometimes possible to mouse over it and fix it (it gets a refresh when it has to draw the underline or something, I guess), but this ad was not fixable (not that I cared about seeing an ad, but the issue as a whole is quite irritating).
Are there plugins which improve image rendering and fix this? Is it a driver issue? What can I do and/or what info do you need from me so that this issue is resolved?
Last edited by 2mac (2014-01-06 15:17:46)

I get things like that too.
What environment are you using? (OpenBox, Kde, i3, Gnome?)
What is your video hardware / Driver. I see these on Intel Graphics.
Are you using a compositor? Which one? I seemed to see this more with xcompmgr than I do with Compton. I seem to see this more with OpenBox and less with i3
Edit: Also, have you messed with any of the rendering flags in Chromium, or are you using the default settings. Do not force hardware rendering. You might also (as an experiment) tell Chrome not to do hardware rendering.

Zoom issue when using selection tool in Photoshop CS5

Hi, i have a macbook pro with a multi touch trackpad. For some reason when i'm using the selection tool and i try zooming in or out using the multi touch track pad nothing happens or sometimes it takes forever for anything to take place. Other times, i have to resort to using the keypad to zoom in or out.
what could be causing this issue as it is really slowing me down

Hi - thanks for your comments. It was happening on all of the selection tools however I have solved the problem by changing the 'Advanced Graphics Processor Setting' to 'Basic' in Photoshop CC.
Thanks anyway

[Solved] Site display issues in Firefox 11.0-2/KDE 4.8.1

I have been having issues with the form fields of the AUR page. Specifically, with any version of Firefox after v9; the fields are incredibly small. (See http://imgur.com/KEdYk for what it looks like). I have removed gtk-kde4, and even created a vanilla user with a brand-new home directory, and this other user profile experiences the same problem. edit: In a fresh install of GNOME 3, the AUR page displays correctly. Also displays correctly if I revert to FF v9
This problem doesn't occur in Chromium, so I thought it was a FF issue, however, I've not heard of anybody else with this same problem... So I'm a little stumped. I filed a bug report a while back, (https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/28613 ), but it has been closed. Any help in diagnosing and/or fixing this issue would be helpful and appreciated. Thanks!

That is sounding quite strange. I've had display issues similar to yours with login fields and search fields that are usually at the top of a we page appearing distorted and on top of each other. Another prevalent problem that I noticed on YouTube was that text I enter into any field doesn't show up, but it is entered and I can search. I'm running xfce so I don't know what to say. Haven't had the problem in gnome, though I really don't like gnome 3 for its lack of what of what I considered organizational hierarchy. (though I am against hierarchies of other sorts), Ive also found that clearing the Firefox cache can solve some of these problems.

[SOLVED] Chromium + pepper = Video @ double speed

I am using the latest stable chromium, with the pepper-stable package from the AUR recommended in the Chromium wiki.
I moved to Chromium as Flash is no longer being developed for Firefox....And Firefox 26 crashes a lot, and randomly, including with all plugins removed. So It's a problem right now.
As the subject mentions....I am getting weird video issues. Usually, the video plays back at double speed, with the associated spastic audio output. Here is an example: Ref: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smCQ2g9L7PU.
This used to play fine in Firefox with the old flashplugin.
In my porting process, here is what I did:
With no browser open:
a) "sudo pacman -Rs flashplugin"
a1) Verified that flash was no longer operating in Firefox.
b) "sudo pacman -S chromium"
c) "yaourt -S chromium-pepper-flash-stable"
d) In chromium: "chrome://plugins" to verify that flash wasn't showing up.
Arch x86_64 (current), NVidia GTX-660, using the nvidia drivers from Arch...extra. (rev 331.20) vdpau is installed in both the 64 and lib32 variants.
I have tried disabling hardware acceleration in the pepper-flash plugin, restarted the browser and retried. I have tried enabling hardware acceleration, restarted the browser and retried.
Playback seems unaffected in either scenario, and remains unusable.
Gnash has never performed properly for me in any scenario where I've tried it. So Gnash is not an option. Gnash has a long way to go until it is ready to be a good drop-in replacement for an official "flash plugin".
So for now, I have to use the smtube for smplayer to view YouTube/major news site videos properly.
I am requesting, please, some assistance in fixing my video playback issue in Chromium.
Sincerely and respectfully,
Dave
PS: I'm curious, why does the firefox community appear to be sitting on their hands when Adobe has made it clear for a long time that Adobe Flash for linux is being abandoned as of 01-JAN-2014? I would have expected some really heavy programming resources to be assigned to gnash to make it better, or write some sort of wrapper for the chromium pepper plugin....for official Adobe support.
Is there another reliable flash playback mechanism that I am missing all together?

I agree with ewaller (the new html5 player for youtube is good) but to answer your question I had a similar issue with pepperflash and if I recall correctly it was related to sound issues. I do not remember which package solved the issue but here is the alsa / pulseaudio packages I have installed:
$ yaourt -Ss alsa | grep installed
extra/alsa-lib 1.0.27.2-1 [installed]
extra/alsa-plugins 1.0.27-2 [installed]

[SOLVED] chromium install fails (imperfect solution)

I've recently installed arch on a new machine and while I am generally able to install other software from pacman I am having trouble with chromium.
Specifically one file:
error: failed retrieving file 'gtk2-2.24.24-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz' from mirrors.acm.wpi.edu : Operation too slow. Less than 1 bytes/sec transferred the last 10 seconds
This error repeats for each mirror only to be exhausted and cause the installation to fail.
This has been occurring for over a week. I was away the entirety of last week and when I came in this morning I Synced and was still received the same error. I've searched but not encountered any similar errors. Can anyone add anything or might possibly know the status of gtk2-2.24.24?
EDIT:
changing the pacman configuration to use wget solved this issue, but I consider this imperfect as I don't really understand why the issue was happening in the first place. Perhaps I should just be happy that it worked, but I just wish I knew "why".
Last edited by matchew (2014-07-08 15:20:26)

That unfortunately did not fix my problem. Strangely enough I am able to download it from the mirror listed in my error message without fail at 10.7 MB/s using wget...I wonder what this is. I have been able to install a few other programs without issue too since I made this original post a couple hours ago.
EDIT:
ok, I went to the pacman conf
vi /etc/pacman.conf
and uncommented
XferCommand = /usr/bin/wget -c --passive-ftp -c %u
which then used wget to download the packages. I dislike this option, and wish I understood what was occuring previously. I think I will recomment that line and use this as a method in case of future failures. I hate to mark this as solved...but I will at the end of my work day if I can't figure out a better explanation.

[SOLVED] home folder issue.

Im having some strange issues with my home folder.
I followed the "beginners guide" by adding a user with this command: "useradd -m -g users -G audio,lp,optical,storage,video,wheel,games,power -s /bin/bash archie", but with my username.
But when i try to start transmission i get this error:Couldn't open "/home/steffa/.config/transmission/lock": No such file or directory. But im able to open transmission if i use the sudo command.
The same problem occurs when i try to use menumaker. i get this output:
[steffa@myhost ~]$ sudo mmaker -vf OpenBox3
Password:
* scanning
desktop... 24 apps found
legacy... 11 apps found
debian... 71 apps found
* merging... 38 coincidings detected
* generating
no terminal emulator specified; will use the default
using Xterm as terminal emulator
* writing to ~/.config/openbox/menu.xml
* done
But reconfigure openbox doesnt change the menu at all. it is still the default menu.xml
I also get this error when trying to launch chromium:
[2389:2389:154808490:FATAL:chrome/browser/browser_main.cc(771)] Check failed: PathService::Get(chrome::DIR_USER_DATA, &user_data_dir). Must be able to get user data directory!
All other applications works just fine.

Great, please mark your topic solved by prepending it to the title.
why did root own my home folder?
I'm not sure, it happened to people before so maybe someone else can shed some light on this.
i did "sudo chown -R steffa:users /home/steffa" i read somewhere that that is the correct way. am i wrong?
Yes that's fine, the extra :users part also assigns it to the users group.

[SOLVED] Chromium crashes everytime I choose a file in the file dialog

Title says all. And it doesn't even need to be a file dialog from Chromium itself. If I trigger a file dialog elsewhere, Chromium also crashes. I only have a slightest idea that it has something to do with GTK+ (or with oxygen-gtk), but that's all I've got.
Any ideas?

So, I just ran the gtk-kde4 kcm module and the theme field was empty for some reason. Just selecting a theme (oxygen-gtk, if that matters) seems to have solved my issue.
