Public bug reported:
After some 70+ days of uptime, during normal use, Gnome suddenly started
preventing me from being able to interact with any window. No window can
be clicked, Alt+Tabbed to, or focused in any way. In some cases,
decorations seem to register clicks: the window gains focus, but loses
it again instantly. The Meta key does not bring up the Panel, and
Ctrl+Alt+arrow doesn't change workspaces. Only the toolbar at the top of
the screen works. Sometimes, playing with the toolbar re-enables
workspace switching, but not always.
Software suspending and resuming the computer temporarily restores
functionality, then it breaks again after several window interactions.
Basically the session is hosed. This bug report was taken before
rebooting. Hopefully it captures something useful, although I expect the
relevant debug symbols are missing.
