Public bug reported: This misbehavior only appears after an upgrade to Gutsy Gibbon. I usually have several Firefox windows open, and I switch between them pretty rapidly. I have them tiled so they are easily accessible, but now when I click on the exposed part of the window I want to switch to, it does not get the focus and does not come to the top. When it gets stuck in this mode, the easiest way to get it out seems to be to click on a different application and then I can click on a different application, which (so far) will always accept the focus, and then Firefox will be working normally when I click back to it--for a while.
I'm pretty suspicious that the problem involves switching between windows belonging to the same application, but I don't usually use any other applications that way... Not sure if it's related to some other input freezes that I've seen, where the keyboard is apparently completely dead (but focus is probably stuck on some place that cannot receive keystrokes). ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Clicking in a window fails to get focus https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/155933 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
