Package: mozilla-firefox Version: 1.0+dfsg.1-2 Severity: minor I'm not really sure which package to blame for this bug, Firefox or the window manager.
Sometimes Firefox's type-ahead-find starts overacting. When I try to input text to a text box, it starts finding the text, taking focus away from the input box. I practically have to type one letter at a time, always mouse-clicking the text box again after that. This is especially annoying when entering passwords, since the inputted letters are visible in the find box. When this happens, it stays that way for that tab, even if you browse to other sites. Other tabs keep working normally. You can open a new tab, copy&paste the address there from the buggy tab and hope the site doesn't rely on referer information to show the same page. I haven't yet hunted down the exact way to reproduce this. I suspect it happens when there's already text in a text box and I double click on it to select all. It might also be related to window manager focus. I'm using Gnome with Sawfish as the wm, with focus settings as sloppy-follows-mouse (entering window gives focus, exiting doesn't take it away). I have one Firefox window fullscreened, with two Gnome panels. I'll keep trying to find how to reproduce this. If someone has any hints on where to look, I would be glad. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.9-rc3 Locale: LANG=C, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Versions of packages mozilla-firefox depends on: ii debianutils 2.8.4 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii fontconfig 2.2.3-4 generic font configuration library ii libatk1.0-0 1.8.0-4 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-20 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libfontconfig1 2.2.3-4 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.1.7-2.3 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgcc1 1:3.4.3-6 GCC support library ii libglib2.0-0 2.6.1-3 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.4.14-2 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libidl0 0.8.3-1 library for parsing CORBA IDL file ii libjpeg62 6b-9 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libkrb53 1.3.6-1 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries ii libpango1.0-0 1.6.0-3 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpng12-0 1.2.8rel-1 PNG library - runtime ii libstdc++5 1:3.3.5-5 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 X Window System protocol client li ii libxext6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxft2 2.1.2-6 FreeType-based font drawing librar ii libxp6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 X Window System printing extension ii libxrender1 0.8.3-7 X Rendering Extension client libra ii libxt6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 X Toolkit Intrinsics ii psmisc 21.5-1 Utilities that use the proc filesy ii xlibs 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 X Keyboard Extension (XKB) configu ii zlib1g 1:1.2.2-3 compression library - runtime -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
