 Replying to [ticket:1759 pvanbosgeo]:
 > When running GRASS (6.4 or 7.0) under Ubuntu (11.10 and 12.04), the
 slider to move up/down in the dropdown list of maps does not work. It does
 appear (see attached screenshot), but when clicking on it it disappears.

 Could you try the widget in wxpython demo (download
 [http://downloads.sourceforge.net/wxpython/wxPython-demo-2.8.12.1.tar.bz2
 here]), it's the ComboCtrl widget, look for TreeCtrl popup. If it works
 for you, there is some problem in the wxGUI code. For me (Ubuntu 10.04) it
 works fine.

 > It is also not possible to move down or up the list with maps using the
 keyboard arrow (should that be a feature request?). Thus, the only two
 ways to select maps is by scrolling using the mouse wheel, or, when one
 wants to select one map only, typing in the first letter(s) of the map
 name.
