Same issue here. Mouse clicks in window list work only randomly. Alt-tab and other methods work fine. Just tested the 'env GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1 gnome-panel --replace' workaround and it fixed things for me. -- Window List buttons do not always respond to mouse clicks https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/470604 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 470604] Re: Window List buttons do not always respond to mouse clicks
Adding a new user (adduser test and configuring it roughly like my own account (no visual effects, focus follows mouse but windows don't raise), I could not reproduce the problem. So while my test was not exhaustive, I suspect a configuration issue. I will try to compare the gconf-settings from the test account with my own and report; but others may try to test a clean user as well. Also, I tried to remove and add the windowlist applet to my own task bar; tried a click to focus setting; but that did not help. -- Window List buttons do not always respond to mouse clicks https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/470604 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 470604] Re: Window List buttons do not always respond to mouse clicks
I have everything as standard as possible, no eye-candy. I have latest nvidia drivers. I have dual-head setup. But, if GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS fixes it, doesn't that mean the Window List code should simply be re- compiled against a recent GDK library? If it's a compile-time problem, that should pinpoint it really quickly. As for the upstreamness, I was under the impression that I use Ubuntu so that I don't have to be aware there is such a thing as upstream, let alone that I'd have to run around posting bugs in every upstream project out there. Can Ubuntu pass this on?

I also can confirm this bug. Since I find this very annoying, I tried to find a circumvention using the GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS env var. I had to do this for Eclipse, and I works also for the Window List. To circumvent this problem, from a commane line just enter env GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1 gnome-panel --replace This restarts the gnome panel and then the mouse works as desired. -- Window List buttons do not always respond to mouse clicks https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/470604 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 470604] Re: Window List buttons do not always respond to mouse clicks
I too can confirm this bug... It started after an upgrade to 9.10, and is still present after a clean install, although I am still using the same home folder - I may try creating a new user soon. I can also confirm briefly moving the mouse off the bar and back on again one or more times allows a click. I can not confirm enabling visual effects to help as everything is sooo slow after enabling and then it reverts back to disabled within a minute. I don't use visual effects anyway, but I know it used to work fast because I tried it for a while a few releases ago. -- Window List buttons do not always respond to mouse clicks https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/470604 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I can confirm this behaviour, to aid in the troubleshooting, here are my notes on the subject. had Jaunty 9.04 w/ compiz and ATI driver (FGRLX) and used Eclipse no prob. upgraded to Karmic 9.1 and experienced Eclipse issue noted by Andrew Scherpbier above, GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS does work around that issue. turned off compiz to allow VNC connection, noticed this Window List panel behaviour. re-enabled compiz, problem persists I am up-to-date aside from the samba updates available past few days. poopy to say the least. -- Window List buttons do not always respond to mouse clicks https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/470604 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 470604] Re: Window List buttons do not always respond to mouse clicks
..update to my previous comment. No amount of resetting defaults etc, seemed to work; I was able to work around this problem and put my system back to a 'usable' state by uninstalling compiz and reinstalling enabling Extra effects from the appearance applet.

[Bug 470604] Re: Window List buttons do not always respond to mouse clicks
Same problem here. Also upgraded from Jaunty to Karmic. It's quite anoying... To be able to click on some buttons, the mouse pointer has to leave and enter the panel a least one time (usually several times), otherwise no clicks (or mouseover) events are detected. -- Window List buttons do not always respond to mouse clicks https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/470604 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 470604] Re: Window List buttons do not always respond to mouse clicks
I am experiencing the same issue. Doesn't seem to matter if Visual Effects are turned on or off. The problem actually smells similar to a problem I have been experiencing using Eclipse (not the ubuntu packaged one...) where buttons in dialogs could not be clicked with the mouse. The problem there was that 9.10 upgraded GTK which causes some incompatibilities with SWT. I now run eclipse while setting the GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS environment variable to 'true' which fixed that problem. -- Window List buttons do not always respond to mouse clicks https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/470604 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 470604] Re: Window List buttons do not always respond to mouse clicks
This happened to me after a Jaunty - Karmic upgrade. The behaviour is consistent: say you move your mouse directly downwards onto an entry in the (horizontal) list. It will change to the hover colour, and clicking on that entry will work. From here moving the mouse to the left always will have no effect (the first item will remain highlighted, left clicking no longer works), whereas moving the mouse to the right will occasionally change the focus to those items with lots of tooltip flickering, and maybe allow clicks. Since my natural action is to run the mouse pointer along the window list, this behaviour kinda sucks.
