Here is a video of me reproducing the bug under Oneiric: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LEdXXXI_dXo
** Description changed: Steps to reproduce: 1. Have an image file or similar saved on the desktop. 2. Open firefox then minimize it. 3. Drag the image file from the desktop to the firefox icon on the launcher. 4. Wait until you see the firefox window. 5. Release the mouse button. The image file will open in the firefox window, but you will no longer be able to interact with windows using the mouse. At this point you have to alt-tab to a terminal (which won't initially be visible), then click in a *different* window. For some reason this gives focus to the terminal. Now 'unity --replace'. + + Steps to reproduce under Oneiric: + + 1. Have an image file or similar saved on the desktop. + 2. Open firefox then minimize it. + 3. Drag the image file from the desktop to the firefox icon on the launcher and immediately release it - the image will load in firefox. + 4. Drag the image file from the desktop to the firefox icon on the launcher again, this time wait until you see the firefox window shrink down and the desktop darken. + 5. Release the mouse button. Impact: Users who aren't developers will probably have to power off the machine to recover from this bug.
