Package: xfwm4 Version: 4.6.2-1 Severity: important
Sometimes happens that once initiated an XFCE session, the windows become mostly insensitive to the mouse: they cannot be selected by clicking on them, they cannot be moved around, the mouse does not recognise the windows' boundaries, etc. So, essentially, the mouse becomes useless. There's a puzzling exception to this behaviour: the mouse does recognise the "close" buttons on the browser *tabs*, so the tabs can be closed (even though they cannot be selected!). These issues are always accompanied by unoperativity of the window cycling: pressing alt + tab triggers a beep, and nothing more. There are several other issues that I have observed only a couple of times (of a total of four): the xfce4 panel ceases to respond to the mouse, only the workspace selector ceases to respond, and (once) the keyboard was blocked and the whole graphical environment was rendered unusable. Unfortunately, I have not suceeded in identifying the cause for these behaviours. They just seem to happen 'sometimes' (roughly once every four boots in the last two weeks). I have never used debugging symbols, so maybe it is possible to figure it out; if there's a protocol that can yield useful information, please tell me where to learn about it and I'll do my best. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.2 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=es_ES.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=es_ES.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages xfwm4 depends on: ii libc6 2.11.2-10 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.88-2.1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libglade2-0 1:2.6.4-1 library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib2.0-0 2.24.2-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.20.1-2 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libpango1.0-0 1.28.3-1+squeeze2 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libstartup-notificatio 0.10-1 library for program launch feedbac ii libwnck22 2.30.4-2 Window Navigator Construction Kit ii libx11-6 2:1.3.3-4 X11 client-side library ii libxcomposite1 1:0.4.2-1 X11 Composite extension library ii libxdamage1 1:1.1.3-1 X11 damaged region extension libra ii libxext6 2:1.1.2-1 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxfce4util4 4.6.2-1 Utility functions library for Xfce ii libxfcegui4-4 4.6.4-1 Basic GUI C functions for Xfce4 ii libxfconf-0-2 4.6.2-1 Client library for Xfce4 configure ii libxfixes3 1:4.0.5-1 X11 miscellaneous 'fixes' extensio ii libxrandr2 2:1.3.0-3 X11 RandR extension library ii libxrender1 1:0.9.6-1 X Rendering Extension client libra Versions of packages xfwm4 recommends: ii librsvg2-common 2.26.3-1 SAX-based renderer library for SVG ii xfwm4-themes 4.6.0-2 Theme files for xfwm4 Versions of packages xfwm4 suggests: ii xfce4 4.6.2 Meta-package for the Xfce Lightwei -- no debconf information _______________________________________________ Pkg-xfce-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-xfce-devel
