Binary package hint: evolution
While typing text in an email reply or create new email text area, the screen changes to a select text mechanism and as I move the mouse up and down so is the selected text moving. At this point I am unable to come out of the select text mode , using ESCkey , Right Side mouse button or anything other means. The effect is Ubuntu apps wide and so the ONLY way out is the power button, which I never like to do, but needs must. I have seen that my version of Evolution is quite old (got it via Ubuntu Software Centre after installing 10.10 32 bit, even though I am on a 64bit architecture - recommendation from Ubuntu support). So will now download version 2.32.1 in an effort to come over the problem.

Thanks for your bug report. Is this still an issue with the latest release of Ubuntu the Natty Narwhal? May you please check and comment back? Thanks in advance!.
