Package: emacs23
Version: 23.3+1-1
Severity: normal

I'm not 100% sure this is an emacs issue, but both times I've seen the problem
it has been with emacs.

The symptoms are that the upper left region of my screen become unusable. I
can't click on any icons on the left side of the gnome menu, and I can't grab
the title bar of any windows in that region. If I hover over the upper part
of this region, I can see the hover-over text from emacs menus. I can also
open emacs dropdown menus by clicking in the right spots. Basically, its like
there's an invisible emacs window sitting between the visible windows and my
mouse pointer.

I didn't investigate much the first time, but now that it has occurred twice
I've taken a closer look. There is an emacs process running, though it doesn't
appear in the gnome window list. This process' parent is PID 1. According to
/proc/<pid>/fd, it has my .xsession-errors file open - though I don't remember
opening that file this session. The positioning of the emacs ghost window is
strange too, as it is covering part of the upper gnome panel - this isn't a
place where I can normally move a window manually. I'm guessing the upper left
coordinate is 0x0.

In case this is a window manager issue, note that I am using compiz from
experimental, version 0.9.2.1+git20110226.f059fae9-4.
