fact-finding: problems after recent Xorg upgrade
I know this about x11@; I am looking to answer is it just me? before I talk to them. System: FreeBSD 9.0-CURRENT #0: Sat Oct 23 08:15:53 EDT 2010 amd64 xorg-7.5.1 fvwm-2.5.31 xorg.conf is appended Since the upgrade to xorg-7.5.1, I have had issues with ... focus, for lack of a better diagnosis. Before, as I move the 3x3 desktop focus followed the mouse. If I switched panels and the mouse ended over a window, that window (except in rare case) acquired focus. No longer. The odds of transfering focus are maybe 1 in 4. Sometimes even the window manager supplied window frame loses focus while I'm inside the window. This can often be fixed by clicking on something the old window that changes the contents - e.g. a menu-bar button in a browser. For things without clickables, like xterm, often the only solution is to exit the window/program and restart. Has anyone else seen this behavior, or have insight into what might be going on? I'm willing to accept I've failed to recompile something, or missed a config file setting; I just want things to work.

Works for me... Notable differences between your system and mine: I'm on 8.2-RELEASE and I'm using the radeonhd driver. Xorg+fvwm (with mostly stock configurations) just work.

As far as your xorg.conf, HandleSpecialKeys always, DontZoom true, and AllowMouseOpenFail true should not be necessary. It's worth testing without them. ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Since focus is handled by the window manager, this might be worth an inquiry to the fvwm mailing list. ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
