At first I thought I had to kill the x-server to get any functionality back, as no mouse clicks or keystroke input seemed to be working. The mouse still moved, but neither the ibar or engage would show mouseover activity, so I thought E was locked up. I figured out however that alt-tab still worked, and I was able to bring focus back that way. At that point everything seemed to be working again, as if the focus was off in limbo somewhere. I had read some forum posts about similar issues having to do with the mozilla and/or firefox browsers, but this issue is present on my system when neither of those programs is running.
I am using cvs build from 6-16-2005, also was happening in cvs build on 6-11-05. I am on ubuntu hoary, and i have focus policy set on CLICK. Let me know if there is any more info I can provide, and please keep up the most excellent work! :) I can't wait till this is finished, and I only wish I was able to help out more. -Enofel ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
