The focus handling in Unity has been rewritten extensively over the last
few years. I have not experienced this particular problem in a very
long time.
I am going to close this bug. If a similar problem occurs, please
report it as a new bug.
** No longer affects: ubuntu
** Changed in: unity
** Description changed:
I updated my Oneiric Virtual Machine this morning and now windows keep
losing focus when I try and type in them. It doesn't appear to matter
- what window I am using (thunderbird, terminal). It's damn annoying
- because I cant use the terminal without having to click
I'm having the exact same problem as Sergey Prokhorov (also with Unity
3D). Additionally, I don't know if this is related, but when I open
nautilus or when it gets opened automatically, it doesn't take focus but
it is moved to the front of the screen, so when I go to close it it
kills whichever
Looks like this serious bug is not going to be fixed...?
Does anyone here know about some solution? Have you been forced to
change your distro? How long does it usually take until ubuntu release
get usable? I switched to (K)Ubuntu before 11.10 and I am actually very
displeased so try to
I've not had the problem I described here since the beta of 11.10. Could
it be something you've installed taking focus? Have you tried Ubuntu to
see if that does the same as this is likely to be KDE specific where as
I was reporting a problem with Unity? I would maybe spin up a live CD
and see if
Yes, I am sure the problem is KDE related on my desktop. I gave up on
trying to figure out what part of KDE is responsible for stealing the
focus. I was trying hard but I did not succeed.
Sorry for stealing your bug report. I do not know how this bug whole
tracking system works.
Even the related
Hmm, it does sound like you have a different problem. If you go to the
top right of this screen you should be able to find the Report bug
button. I would simply report your problem and state your symptoms and
someone will pick the bug up. I think the otherone is undecided because
it is incomplete
In fact, I cannot give any details about this problem. All I know is
that it is KDE related.
This one is a fresh install of Kubuntu 11.10. I did not notice the
problem prior to 11.10 and my girlfriend cannot confirm this bug. She
uses Kubuntu 11.10 on two screens, too. I have installed / use more
I have just had the chance to examine the problem because my window lost
its focus again. One thing I see interesting ... the window which has
lost its focus stays highlighted (e.g. the title bar, opacity ...) as if
it were still having focus. It is harder to notice that your active
working window
Is this a dupe of bug 848115?

This problem is not related to Unity. You also do not have to try any of the
reported tricks to lose focus.
I have experienced the bug under Kubuntu (KDE). All I have to do is to
type in Konsole. Time to time, the window lose focus and my actual
typing probably goes to nowhere. The top bar of
I'm not sure it's entirely Unity's fault. I've noticed a whole lot more
focus-stealing in gnome-session-fallback in Oneiric Ocelot. Maybe it's
related to Gnome 3?

Don't need even to switch workspaces now to lost focus. Just open
terminal, open chrome, alt-tab to terminal, and focus is lost. To make
matters worse, click-to-focus doesn't work, so i have to
resize/maximize/unmaximize the window to recover the focus again.
I can reproduce this bug always. So
Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
