Public bug reported: Binary package hint: compiz
Description: Ubuntu lucid (development branch) Release: 10.04 compiz: Installed: 1:0.8.4-0ubuntu15 Candidate: 1:0.8.4-0ubuntu15 Version table: *** 1:0.8.4-0ubuntu15 0 500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status System->Preference->Appearance, "Visual Effects" tab. Selected "Normal" option. When using OpenGL graphics, invalid SDL_ACTIVEEVENT events are generated each time a mouse button is clicked within the OpenGL application window. This causes the application to think it has lost mouse focus; which is causing an issue with a game I help on (Eternal Lands). The expected behaviour is that no SDL_ACTIVEEVENT events are generated for mouse button clicks. This is indeed the behaviour when the "Visual Effects" tab has "None" selected. I have hacked together a simple demonstration program based on an example I found on the web (link on the source). This demonstration program gives the following output: "Visual Effects" tab "None": SDL_ACTIVEEVENT 1 0 1 SDL_ACTIVEEVENT 1 1 1 Mouse Press button: 1 x: 381 y: 302 Mouse Press button: 3 x: 381 y: 302 KeyPress Event: escape "Visual Effects" tab "Normal": SDL_ACTIVEEVENT 1 0 1 SDL_ACTIVEEVENT 1 1 1 SDL_ACTIVEEVENT 1 0 1 SDL_ACTIVEEVENT 1 1 1 Mouse Press button: 1 x: 323 y: 220 SDL_ACTIVEEVENT 1 0 1 SDL_ACTIVEEVENT 1 1 1 Mouse Press button: 3 x: 323 y: 220 KeyPress Event: escape ** Affects: compiz (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Invalid SDL_ACTIVEEVENT events generated on mouse clicks when compiz enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/566856 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
