Title:
Unable to interact with windows in unity using mouse or alt-tab
Status in Unity:
Invalid
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Since upgrading to oneiric, when I am successful in suspending and
resuming (which is not all the time) I very often become unable to use
my mouse or touchpad to interact with window decorations or use
keyboard commands to switch applications. The result is that to get to
a window that is behind the current window, I have to close that
program, since I can't get to the window menu or the minimize button
or use alt-tab. If I do "metacity --replace" I can alt-tab and
interact with windows again. All this time I am able to interact with
the contents of the windows, just not the window-management functions
and window decorations provided by the window manager. I have never
consistently been able to find a cause of this. Occasionally I find
that the window that reports that external media has been detected is
hidden behind all these windows and that when I close it I can
interact with the other windows again, or that closing the wireless
notification tooltip (which stays in perpetuity until I click to close
it) restores interaction with the window manager. But sometimes I can
close all windows and the only way to interact with the windows again
is to switch managers.
When I did "ubuntu-bug unity" to report the bug, one of the
notifications I got was that it was impossible to grab the mouse and
that this could be an effect of malware.
