Hi,

thank you for the reply. I'm trying to reproduce the problem, but its
very hard haha. I have a little bit information from
the .xsession-errors file. The situation now was a terminal window that
was maximized and over that a skype chat window that was half over the
screen (by dragging it against the right border of the screen. Does that
have a name?). When the desktop is 'stuck' i can scroll the terminal
windows, which is beneath the skype window that is active. I can type in
the skype chat, but if I click the bar of the terminal screen, this
appears in the log:

    (gnome-terminal:13212): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_window_get_events:
assertion `GDK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed
    (gnome-terminal:13212): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_ref:
assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed
    (gnome-terminal:13212): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref:
assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed
    (gnome-terminal:13212): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_window_get_events:
assertion `GDK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed
    (gnome-terminal:13212): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_ref:
assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed
    (gnome-terminal:13212): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref:
assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed
    (gnome-terminal:13212): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_window_get_events:
assertion `GDK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed
    (gnome-terminal:13212): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_ref:
assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed
    (gnome-terminal:13212): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref:
assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed

then, when i press the alt-tab combination for switch the screen,
nothing happens, except these logs appear:

      JS LOG: pushModal: invocation of begin_modal failed
      JS LOG: pushModal: invocation of begin_modal failed
      JS LOG: pushModal: invocation of begin_modal failed

One time also this message came by:

    Window manager warning: Invalid WM_TRANSIENT_FOR window 0x320000c
specified for 0x3218ba4 (Choose Fil).

The strange thing, at some point I got out of this, but have no idea
what I did, and started writing the email, and it didnt happen anymore.
The skype window is smaller now, and the evolution email screen is
maximized. This could be a coincidence maybe?

And one time I clicked the skype screen, this appears:

    Window manager warning: Got a request to focus 0x320205a (Ruth |
swe) with a timestamp of 0.  This shouldn't happen!

Ill attempt to post a bug soon, but have to find some time. Would it be
enough if I post this story?

Cheers

Peter
