There was a similar issue in the greeter at one point where the focus was not in the window at all. After a lot of investigation it magically disappeared in a GTK+ update...
What I suspect is happening here is GTK+ does not consider the window to have focus, though it does have focus according to X (which is why you can type into the field). When the problem occurred before using gtk_window_present would cause the window to get focus and a code inspection of GTK+ shows that this does do some different things. This is probably all a side effect of not having a window manager. I was investigating how hard it would be to implement a trivial WM to work around this. AFAICT GTK+ is supposed to work without a WM though. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/810805 Title: Cursor does not show up in password field To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/810805/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
