I observe the same problem, also Ubuntu 8.10 with 2.24.1-0ubuntu1 with visual effects disabled. The simplest way I can recreate this behaviour is:
$ echo 'showpage' > test.ps $ evince test.ps & $ touch test.ps As mentioned above, after the last command the evince window comes to the foreground but is not focused. The auto-reloading function was mentioned in http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=304249 I believe that the correct behaviour would be for evince to stay in the background, not come to the foreground and get focus as the original post suggests. -- goes to foreground at reload but is not focussed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/293310 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
