Public bug reported: Binary package hint: firefox
when you're typing stuff into the address bar and it shows some suggestions/search results; you can't alt tab or use any other wm keys while that window is open, you have to hit escape to clear it first; this is a big problem because merely selecting the current url in the address bar opens that results window. steps to reproduce: 1) open firefox 2) type something in the address bar so that it shows the search dropdown 3) try and use alt-tab without dismissing it expected outcome: switch to next window in cycle, or do any given wm action actual outcome: nothing works i've tried wm actions with compiz (alt-tab, cube faces, changing workspaces) and metacity wm actions (alt-tab) and they do not get through normally hitting escape wouldn't be too onerous, but merely selecting the address bar also opens the dropdown ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.10 Package: firefox 3.6.10+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu3 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.35-22.33-generic 2.6.35.4 Uname: Linux 2.6.35-22-generic x86_64 Architecture: amd64 Date: Sat Oct 9 20:49:18 2010 FirefoxPackages: firefox 3.6.10+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu3 firefox-gnome-support 3.6.10+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu3 firefox-branding 3.6.10+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu3 abroswer N/A abrowser-branding N/A ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, user) LANG=en_US.utf8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: firefox ** Affects: firefox (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug maverick -- address bar traps wm key bindings while results are visible https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/657537 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
