thank you for contacting me. I think you can close the report. I haven't had any issues with this since then. I honestly forgot about it after all this time (I read 2011) and I can't even remember how or when it got fixed.
greetings, Bart -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/787193 Title: window focus when app starts from another Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Binary package hint: firefox When firefox is launched from another app, like for example pidgin, focus is not completely set to firefox. Even when the window is open, writing into forms seems to be impossible. Also, the text in the top window border of firefox is grayed out, while I still can use the buttons next to it to minimize or maximize. The only way to get full focus of firefox is by minimizing and then restoring the window. I've noticed a similar problem in Gimp. When moving from the drawing to the window with brushes, I sometimes can not select brushes. The strange thing is the solution. Just selecting the window with the drawing again, and then back to the window with the brushes. It is similar because the focus is not completely set to the selected window or app. ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.04 Package: firefox 4.0.1+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.11.04.2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.38-8.42~ppa2-lowlatency 2.6.38.2 Uname: Linux 2.6.38-8-lowlatency x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Architecture: amd64 Date: Mon May 23 22:17:15 2011 FirefoxPackages: firefox 4.0.1+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.11.04.2 flashplugin-installer 10.3.181.14ubuntu0.11.04.1 adobe-flashplugin N/A icedtea-plugin 1.1~20110420-0ubuntu1 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.04 "Natty Narwhal" - Release amd64 (20110427.1) ProcEnviron: LANGUAGE=nl_BE:en LANG=nl_BE.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: firefox UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to natty on 2011-05-21 (2 days ago) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/787193/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
