 mouse wheel, up-down, pgup-pgdown, and home-end keys all work for me in
 linux.
 (new debian stable+xfce4+wx 2.8.10.1) the only thing I tried that doesn't
 work there is typing the first letter when scrolling through the list to
 jump to the next map starting with that letter.

 does it help to click on a map name first? (force context change to the
 list)

 I assume this needs to be fixed at a lower wxPy<-->Windows desktop level,
 and there's probably not much we can do about it.

 can you find another wxPy app on Windows and see if it behaves the same
 way? (eg Audacity??)

 ps- please use the "wingrass" keyword for ms-windows problems so it gets
 picked up on the list of open Windows bugs. see
