I've got an odd problem that just cropped up last week after using
google reader with gears for a long time.

When I go offline, the articles download OK but the keyboard shortcuts
don't quite work anymore. For example, 'j' doesn't highlight the
article or mark it as read. Clicking on the article does not select it
or mark it as read either.

As well, the article counts don't seem to get updated.

I'm using FF 2.0.0.13 + gears 0.3.13.0 on Win XP SP2.

I've uninstalled and reinstalled gears, deleted the database, etc with
no luck.

I have exactly the same problem.
Firefox 2.0.0.13, Gears 0.3.13.0, Vista Home Premium

I have the same problem, it started last week.

(Mac OSX 10.3, PPC G4, Firefox 2.0.0.13, Gears 0.1.56, no other addons/
scripts)

I thought it might be because I use an older version of Gears (current
Gears crashes Firefox, still).

Also, it seems that items are no longer automatically Marked as Read
when I scroll past them in extended view, and, if I marked them
manually I can no longer unMark them.

Just tried it on my linux box too. Same thing -- it's obviously OS/
browser independent if it happens on XP, Vista, OSX and Linux.

Does anybody from Google check this board? Should I be sending
something somewhere else?

Hi guys,

Thanks for reporting this problem. We do indeed check this board. :)
We're currently looking into this problem right now and should have an
update soon. Thanks for your patience-

Great, thanks!

This has been going on for a couple of weeks now... any update / ETA
for the fix?
Thanks!

Hi everyone,

Thanks for your patience. I'm happy to report to you that we've
isolated the problem and should have a fix live in the next few days;
turns out we made some changes and broke a few things :) Thanks again
for reporting and helping to make Reader better. If the problem
persists in a few days, please let us know and we'll take another
look.

Roger

Thanks for the update. Will this require an update to gears or will
reader just update by itself?
