With compiz disabled (Visual effects set to none from the first screen) everything works great - it is enough to move the mouse to a screen to make the keyboard input to be sent to that screen.
If I enable compiz back using Appearance->Visual Effects on the first screen (on the second it remains disabled due to the --only-current- screen option), then the keyboard works well on both screens with only one difference to the ways it behaves when compiz is disabled: I have to actuali click on a screen to make it "active" for the keyboard input. Also, I have window title bars on the second screen after this. So my guess is that is something wrong with the compiz start-up script. I've noticed that, /usr/bin/compiz, actually first starts the decorator and at the end launches compiz and not the other way around - the way we used to start compiz before gutsy. This may be the correct way (the gutsy way), but I've noticed that the old start-up way allows me to type a command in the terminal on the second screen (Applications->Accessories->Terminal). -- ubuntu gutsy 7.10 / compiz / second xscreen / no keyboard https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/173517 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
