I've tried the channel a few times, but nobody else seems to be experiencing this, so I thought I'd post a message here.
Anyway, when it was in arch linux testing, I tried xorg-server 1.5 a few times and was unsuccesful, downgrading always fixed the problem, but since it was moved from testing to extra I'd really like to get it working now. Basically, after calling awful.screen.focus() from a binding, somehow, capi.mouse.screen becomes nil (I looked at the index function in mouse.c, and to my unexperienced eye it looks like mouse_query_pointer_root is returning false, which causes nothing to be returned to lua, making it nil, but I can't say that for sure), which causes pretty much everything to fail, as all lua functions need the screen to operate on. (All my hooks seem to stop working as well, and I can't transfer focus to different windows any more). Recently, I've begun noticing that the same thing would happen even without me calling awful.screen.focus, at random intervals, so I have to restart X (X itself is fine, windows continue to be updated and I can move the mouse, I can't interact with the applications though) This is on nvidia 180.xx with 4-monitor xinerama. I've tried downgrading the packages again, but much to my dismay it doesn't seem to be going away any more, so my desktop is rather unusable at the moment. It happens in awesome-git as well as in the next branch in git, and the 3.0 release too, the default config has the same problem here. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could help me fix this or give me some pointers on how to provide more information to facilitate a solution (the only errors I'm getting are lua functions complaining that capi.mouse.screen is nil) -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
