I'm also experiencing this bug, but it does not seem to be limited to gtk programs, Konsole is also affected. I am unable to give you steps to reproduce the bug, though it keeps happening. The bug occurs under both KDE and XFCE.
SCIM/SKIM seems to be involved, as killing it after this bug occurred completely crashed XFCE (ctrl-alt-backspace was required to get back into usable state) I will keep them killed from now on to see whether this affects the occurrence of the bug. -- Some gtk+ programs (gvim, gedit, gnome terminal, firefox...) sometimes do not receive keyboard inputs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/40137 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for gtk+2.0 in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
