Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-panel
When dime/date applet has several locations set and a checkbox is set to display temperature and weather, then this applet steals focus every time it updates the weather information. I could be wrong with my diagnosis above, so let me expand: 1. Fully up to date Lucid (upgraded from Karmic) 2. date/time applet on the Gnome panel is set to show temperature and weather in one of the two locations that it has defined 3. every hour or so, something steals keyboard focus - if I am typing text, I can no longer type it, if I am watching a movie I can no longer pause it, ... 4. I need to click into the current application to regain focus (or use Alt-Tab) 5. Every time the focus is stolen, before I click to return focus to current application, the date/time applet on the panel in highlighted with a pinkish colour (I use Radiance theme) This bug will annoy the crap out of a LOT of users, if this goes live and it is very likely to cause serious problems with fixing the bug #1. ** Affects: gnome-panel (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- date/time applet steals focus when refreshing weather https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/569694 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-panel in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
