Dear Raster. Thank you for your reply. > Input should have nothing to do with driver. it's unrelated to any video driver (nvidia) code. This doesn't make sense... :/ It's something else. After having read your reply, I checked my config and startup script and found, that I run a modified gnome-session every time I start enlightenment. That comes from a time when I used a gnome-panel in my enlightenment session. So removing that gnome-session solved my most important problems. Heureka! So it looks like that gnome-session interfered with the enlightenment session from time to time.

A long time ago there was a build script, 'easy_e17.sh' it was called I tnink, that checked the project tree for new code and compiled the components accordingly. Would such a script still exist?

[e-users] e22.3.0 windows/desktop focus problems in combination with recent nvidia drivers
My friends... For a long time now I lived with some bugs with ubuntu 16.04 + e22.3.0 (ppa) and a nvidia gtx1060, running the default ubuntu version of the proprietary nvidia driver, (nvidia-384). I was not able to do right clicks in some software (telegram-desktop) and had some 'ghosts' of closed or minimized applications in the pager and the window switcher. Also I lost focus on popup windows in some apps (gnome-screenshot). I could live with that... I have seen worse in my ~15(!) years of enlightenment usage. Now I had to switch to the latest nvidia-396, because of some steam games I would like to play. Problems have become worse! Now I completely loose focus from time to time for the whole desktop. Although I can drag windows around and close them, I cannot open any enlightenment menu from the desktop with my mouse, I cannot type anymore (or only certain keys work). The only way to get focus back, is to switch to a console and back to X. I have come to a point, where I really need your help. I cannot continue my enlightenment experience like that. My hope is that some of you might be aware of similar problems and are able to share their solution (nvidia GPU configuration) or enlightenment rendering settings. If you don't have a solution for me, I probably need to step back to e17 in combination with bodhilinux or use a different window manager. Stepping back to nvidia-384 is a temporary solution maybe, but I would not be able to use my computer and GPU the way I want i to use, as I would not be able to play the games I want, that need a rather recent nvidia-driver. Please help me. The e17 desktop was and still is an enlightenment for me. I cannot imagine living without it on a multi-screen setup. sincerely yours... minimec ___ enlightenment-users mailing list enlightenment-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-users
