Title:
inconsistent window focus behavior in web browsers
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Binary package hint: firefox chromium-browser seamonkey-browser
This applies ONLY to Lucid (10.04).
PROBLEM:
When you open a second web browser window, sometimes it comes up on top (as
expected) and sometimes it comes up behind the window that currently has the
focus.
TO REPLICATE:
1) Close all open windows and turn off Desktop Effects.
2) Launch firefox.
3) Type something in the firefox window.
4) Without closing firefox, launch a different program and watch its window
pop up on top.
5) Launch firefox again (so it should open a second, new window).
Notice that this new window comes up behind the window of the last
program you launched. This is not the expected behavior, and was not
the behavior in previous versions of Ubuntu.
NOTES:
1) If you don't type anything in the first firefox window (i.e. omit step 3
above), then upon launching the second window you get the expected behavior (it
comes up in front).
2) This also seems to affect Chrome and SeaMonkey in exactly the same way,
but not other programs as far as I can tell. (Not even Epiphany!)
