The super-fast pan only occurs when placing a symbol, not when moving or copying a symbol, even though the "Preferences/General Options/Controls/Pan while moving object" box is checked. I tried running KiCAD on the Win7 host, and it behaves differently. It correctly autopans when placing a symbol, but it also does not auto-pan at all when moving or copying a symbol, even though the "Preferences/General Options/Controls/Pan while moving object" box is checked.

So it seems there are two bugs here?

#1 Super-fast auto-pan when placing symbols in Eeschema in Ubuntu.
#2 No autopan when moving or copy/moving symbols in Eeschema in either Ubuntu or Win7.
