1. That is exactly what actually happens, 2. That is exactly what I would want to happen, because 3. mixing modes in this way (console to GUI) is very broken. If I'm busy typing away and some other process decides to show an error in this way, I would likely miss it because I've been typing and happened to press 'enter' at an inopportune moment. Never, ever steal my focus. It's just rude. Knock before entering, say "excuse me", etc. -- don't steal focus, ever https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/328961 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
