OK, question to Ubuntu devs. Is there someone actually interested in investigating this? If so, please list anything that would be useful to check when the bug occurs (about once a month for me with 8.10).
Some additional info. The last time this bug (or something very similar -- hard to say) occurred on my machine, even restarting X wouldn't work. Investigating more closely, I realised that the focus was always "stuck" to one one window -- or part of a window. For example, at one point, the focus was on the desktop switcher in the panel. It would respond to clicks and everything, but nothing else would. Then I killed the panel (it auto-respawned) and suddenly, the focus would follow the mouse again (I would see the window title bars change colour). But as soon as I clicked on a certain window, it would grab the focus forever until I killed it. Killing the window manager usually does not help. Restarting X sometimes works, but the last time, it didn't and I actually had to reboot the machine. -- No more mouse events after using rdesktop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/55739 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
