View 3 Replies View RelatedDebian Multimedia :: Focus Is Trapped And Left Mouse Click Doesn't Transfer Focus?
Aug 9, 2011I'm hit with a very annoying bug: mouse clicks do not give focus anymore, focus stays trapped and sometimes right clicking the element that last had focus allows the next left click to move focus. I'm running wheezy with kde. Searching the web it I found no solution but it seems my problem is close to what is reported there:e issue: after alt+tab the window decoration changes as if the focus had moved to the new window but it stays trapped in the previous window. Rebooting does not fix the issue.I have nvidia graphics set up with dual screen through the nvidia drivers but this setup has been working good for several months, so I don't think it's related.

View 2 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: GNOME Is There A Way To Focus/activate A Window On Mouse Over?
Jan 26, 2011I recall a partner in a CS class who changed my setup to focus a window on mouse over and that was really handy for programming with a ton of terminals open. I've seen Dwell Click under accessibility options, but that doesn't seem to do anything. I know that sometimes the GUI control applets have features undisabled that don't really do anything (i.e. WINS) if you don't have the right stuff installed. How do I get mouse over pretty much just simulate clicking the window.

Mar 10, 2010In backing up my server, I back up my databases with mysqldump. I save that file in /tmp, tar it (w/ gzip), and move it to the backup storage.
However, while phpmyadmin handles .tar.gz, it doesn't like my file, since the .sql file isn't in the root directory of the archive.
That is... when I run tar, it saves the entire directory structure leading up to the file... which is what it's supposed to do.
If I want to import my database back, I need to untar it first, which I don't mind, but I was wondering if there was a way around having to do so...

The vesa driver is not capable of running Compiz, you need to install the proper driver for your graphics card. I tried with newer kenel, but no luck. I tried to install the newer driver from intel. I am not quite sure I managed to install them properly, though. Is this the appropriate sub-forum for this topic, or "hardware and laptops".

Fedora :: Openoffice.org Ignores Compiz Settings For Mouse Focus?
Jun 4, 2010Openoffice.org apparently ignores the window manager altogether for questions of focus. This combined with opening lots of little dialogs and menus is making it almost unusable. (Over at openoffice.org, this has been answered with (essentially) "I use click to focus, so raising on focus is normal, so I'm putting at the lowest possible priority because it has nothing to do with usability.") The problem is that I use focus following the mouse, with click to raise. This is very convenient for copying between two windows and saves me a lot of time and energy, as I have to do this quite often. Current behavior, however, causes Openoffice.org to raise any window you happen to pass over, thus hiding the floating toolbar or dialog box that you were trying to click on. Worse, as the window you brushed by has gained focus, in most cases, the toolbar or dialog disappears entirely. The only solution is to move everything around so as to have a path to get to your toolbar/dialog without touching another window, or to minimize all but one openoffice document. Is there anyway to make Openoffice.org usable with this setting?

View 2 Replies View RelatedApplications :: New Window Focus Bug In Pypanel
Nov 26, 2010Pypanel is a great lightweight panel for window manager users, but I'm seeing a problem for which I've been unable to find a fix, or patch. Unfortunately pypanel has been inactive with no further development for a number of years so it's not likely to see any new releases with a fix any time soon.
The problem is that when a new window is opened in most window managers, the new window gains focus by default, and it shows at the top of the window list. However, pypanel does not show the new window focused within the panel unless you click on the task button in the panel, or you click somewhere on the newly opened window. All the other panels that I've tried focus new windows immediately after they open by default, just like most windows managers do.
I've run across others having the same issue, but no fixes or patches found after many hours of searching. Would any of you happen to know of a fix, a patch, or a work around other than using a different panel application?

Ubuntu :: OpenOffice Does Not Get The Focus After Click On Its Button?
Apr 17, 2010When I click on the OpenOffice button in my panel, the window comes to the front, but the focus is still on the last window; so clicking on the OpenOffice button again will not minimize it, typing will not key anything into the document, and clicking on the last app's button will minimize that one instead of switching to it. I might also ask the OpenOffice community in case this is an OO issue. I also might need to switch to AbiWord. OO is an annoying application.
