Does it happen with `emacs -Q'?

Could you try setting shift-select-mode to nil and seeing if the problem persists? ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread

This bug applies to the current CVS trunk.
Moving with C-p, C-n etc will activate transient mark mode. Arrow
keys do not.
It happens with emacs -q so so it's not my .emacs file.
My config options are --with-xft --with-x-toolkit=gtk
I've tride it on two computers and it's the same on both.
Thanks for emacs!
