Running 14.04. Installed Unity Tweak Tool specifically to let me turn on focus follows mouse. Did so.
Multiple times now I discover that it has reset itself back to focus mode "click" through no action on my part. My best guess it that it can happen mid session, and not just across a reboot, but I haven't yet specifically noted when it happens exactly, nor pinned down a cause. However, when it does happen, the unity tweak tool happily tells me that the mode is back to "click" instead of "mouse". This needs a fix. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1112061 Title: unity forgets focus-follows-mouse setting across update and reboot Status in Unity: Confirmed Status in gnome-settings-daemon package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in unity package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I had gone roughly two weeks without rebooting my 12.10 installation.
