You know, I _know_ I've seen this happen as well. It is rather infuriating!

But I've also had it happen in other X11 applications, like Mozilla... could it be some wierd XFree86 thing?

On Linux, clicking in the scrollbar of a PluggableListMorph sometimes results in several page-scrolls rather than just one. To see this open a Browser and click in the scrollbar of category pane. On my system, within half a dozen clicks, the scrollbar will start "autoscrolling". This does not happen on Windows. Can anyone duplicate this behavior? It's especially annoying when using Celeste -- it's infuriating when I try to click to the previous page of message headers, and they just stream by.

I don't know how to begin to debug this one.

Assuming you're using the same image on both platforms, I'm guessing it's a problem with events on the Linux VM you're using. (I'm not sure which version of the VM you have.) You may want to try a 3.0 versus 3.2 VM, etc.
