Yes, I am sure. By the way, I use KDE. I did not take the chance yet to see the behaviour with Gnome. I definitely do not use auto-raise features. Note that the mouse wheel works perfectly fine as well. > Do you have the same phenomenon in the PGN window (which responds > to arrow keys like the board window) ?

I can imagine this, since the problem is almost too basic to mention. Also, given your reaction, I feel I could be on my own with this one... > Pascal Georges Thanks for the quick response, Joost. > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] a écrit : > > Hi, > > > > Recently I migrated my system to Suse 10.2 ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) and > > installed > > associated scid rpm package (3.6.1). > > > > Smooth progress until I noticed that keyboard input (e.g. arrow > > keys in the main board window to go to next/prev move) works only > > once (only immediately after the window has received focus).
