This bug has become confusing, so I have opened bug #510771, about the
dialog coming up without being active.

Shut Down dialog doesn't open in the foreground

This is on Lucid Lynx Alpha 1, running Gnome 2.29.3 under metacity.
How to reproduce:
1) Begin with a clean desktop.
2) Open an instance of Nautilus.
3) Press the power button.
Expected behavior: The shutdown dialog should come up in the foreground,
active and ready to receive keyboard or mouse
Marking invalid /as a paper cut/, as this is not consistently
reproducible (I cannot reproduce it, nor can mac_v), so it makes it
difficult to fix. I also suspect that the sporadic nature of the problem
means the technical details underneath the issue are non-trivial.

@david: it works properly the first time but fails every subsequent
time. to reproduce the bug do:
1) press power button to show menu (opens in foreground, has focus)
2) select suspend
3) press power button to resume the computer
4) enter password to unlock screen
5) press power button to show
I'm seeing this on Karmic, too. I'm annoyed by this behavior when I
press CTRL+ALT+DEL to bring up the dialog. I understand the reasoning
about preventing accidental shutdown if somebody inadvertently presses
the power button, but I don't think the same reasoning should apply when
the dialog is
Hey, I always thought that the shutdown dialog (which possibly should be
called something else) should have an option to lock the screen, like in
Windows XP. That option, which is non-destructive if selected by
mistake, should be the default. In that way nobody would have to worry
about the risk
People keep reporting that they notice this behavior...
But I have *never* noticed this.
I'v used the FUSA/indicator-session and the system menu for shutdowns/logouts
and this doesnt happen with those.
Might this be a problem with triggering those actions using keyboard shortcuts?

Confirming what Michael said above ^
If I try to shut down my computer with either option, the dialog comes
up and gains focus. The only instance in which this does not occur for
me is when there is recent typing or mouse activity. I guess that I'd
prefer to have the dialog gain focus
From what I can see, the bug is not in gnome-power-manager, but in
gnome-session.
I can see in original file gnome-session/gsm-logout-dialog.c at line
142:
gtk_window_set_keep_above (GTK_WINDOW (logout_dialog), TRUE);
There is no logic surrounding it that could cause this window to be
This is working as intended originally, though perhaps the intention
should change. What happens is that when you press the power button, if
there has been keyboard or mouse activity recently, it opens in the
background so you don't accidentally select one of the options. I'm not
sure what the

I can confirm this. I use compiz all the time and oddly enough this
happens only once in a while. Also I get the correct dialog. (Is it
possible that focus prevention prohibits it from displaying properly?)

This has happened to me many times in Jaunty. I agree it's a great
papercut to fix.

dunno if it's just my imagination, but I only noticed it once I started
running compiz (i.e. set deskstop effects to max rather than none).
Also on Jaunty.

It seems that the dialogue only obtains focus the first time after
starting the computer. After suspending or hibernating the computer, the
dialogue will appear on top, but will for some reason not gain focus.

Bartek,
The power button bringing up the wrong dialog is noted in bug #252795
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power-
manager/+bug/252795). Installing Ted's latest gnome-power-manager
package in his PPA resolved that issue for me.

Andrew, does pressing the power button get you the shutdown dialogue or the
logout dialogue? I get the latter and it is annoying.
