| Klausi69 | Hello. | 19:14 |
| n-iCe | hi | 19:20 |
| Klausi69 | Last week I installed Lubuntu 16.04 (64bit) for an elder colleague of mine (Acer Aspire One 722 netbook, ex Win7). After receiving the device, there is at least one problem with a text box I can't understand. Could you help me? | 19:24 |
| n-iCe | maybe, what's the problem | 19:25 |
| genii | A better description of the text box issue may help us to help you | 19:25 |
| Klausi69 | It's an effect I got by using terminal before: When writing some words (Thunderbird etc.) , suddenly a small text box is visible with the last letter on the upper right corner of my desktop. | 19:26 |
| Klausi69 | I assume this is a search box or something like that, perhaps a wrong shortcut. | 19:27 |
| Klausi69 | I've got a screenshot of the complete desktop with this small box. | 19:28 |
| swift110 | hey | 19:30 |
| genii | Klausi69: Good, if you post a link to it, someone may recognize the issue | 19:33 |
| Klausi69 | Is Dropbox ok? | 19:33 |
| AriMartti | http://picpaste.com ? | 19:34 |

| n-iCe | hi | 19:43 |
| swift110 | hey n-iCe | 19:44 |
| krytarik | Klausi69: That's what happens when the desktop is in focus and you type something. | 19:52 |
| Klausi69 | Hm. But the text should appear in the selected window (here: TB), not in a different small box. I can't understand the goal. | 19:53 |
| genii | The text box you are typing into somehow is losing focus | 19:54 |
| AriMartti | Klausi69: maybe your hand is touching the touchpad when writing | 19:56 |
| AriMartti | and if pointer is not above the window you have written, you lose focus | 19:56 |
| genii | Or you are moving the cursor somewhere outside of the box where you are typing, yes | 19:56 |
| Klausi69 | You mean this effect is a misuse of mine? This was my thought, too. I assumed an unwanted shortlink. | 19:57 |
| AriMartti | maybe you have to fine tune synaptics driver or something | 19:58 |
| AriMartti | so touchpad isn't so sensitive as is it now | 19:58 |
| swift110 | i need my scren to stop flashing | 19:59 |
| swift110 | glad i dont have epilepsy | 19:59 |
| genii | Klausi69: What I normally do is after clicking into the text box where I want to type, I move the cursor to the other side of the box but not outside of it. | 19:59 |
| AriMartti | swift110: update your display driver? | 20:00 |
| krytarik | Klausi69: That'd only apply if you have enabled focus-follows-mouse anyway. | 20:01 |
| AriMartti | krytarik: or if Klausi69 touches the touchpad when writing and it's too sensitive to get click by touch | 20:02 |
| krytarik | Yeah, that too. | 20:02 |
| Klausi69 | krytarik: I didn't change the default settings | 20:02 |
| swift110 | AriMartti, how do I do that | 20:05 |
| AriMartti | I don't have any lubuntu near my hands :) | 20:08 |
| AriMartti | something like software and drivers | 20:08 |
| Klausi69 | Perhaps I should deactivate touchpad temporarily. | 20:09 |
| AriMartti | do you have external mouse? | 20:10 |
| Klausi69 | Yes | 20:10 |
| AriMartti | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad | 20:11 |
| AriMartti | maybe you have touchpad button in your fn+f5 or something so | 20:12 |
| Klausi69 | I would try "Disable touchpad while typing" on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Mouse | 20:17 |
| Klausi69 | Is this recommendable? | 20:17 |
| extinct_potato | yup, it should work fine | 20:17 |
| extinct_potato | maybe except it's a bit dangerous if you've got only touchpad | 20:18 |
| Klausi69 | I use an external mouse | 20:19 |
| extinct_potato | Oh, so you should be safe and sound. | 20:19 |
| extinct_potato | Go ahead and tick that option. | 20:19 |
| Klausi69 | Ok. This sounds good. I think this is a good hint. Thx a lot. | 20:20 |
| extinct_potato | If you don't use touchpad at all you might as well disable it. | 20:20 |
| extinct_potato | I did it, and I'm happy with it. | 20:20 |
