Title:
  major window focus problem in X

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Release: Hardy 8.04
  Package: Xorg or GDM, latest official versions (?)

  Well. I am plagued by a rather strange bug. For me it's always
  reproducible but from the lack of bugreports here I guess it's
  something rare.

  The bug occurs in all X applications Gnome or KDE, it doesn't matter.
  Sometimes for instance when I use Firefox I am unable to click on a
  hyperlink, or alt+tab to another window. alt+f or alt+f1 still works
  and enables the menu. opening up a menu temporarily fixes the focus
  problems. as do right-clicking some times. Whenever I am unable to
  click buttons or other widgets in an application, it seems I am able
  to use the tab button to move the focus to the widget I am trying to
  access. These problems occurs in hardy.

  I have tried to google for answers but so far that have been
  unsuccessful. Some webpage suggested there was problems with
  gnome+subwindows, but my bug occurs even if I use KDE. I have tried
  uninstalling compiz, with no luck and I have deleted my .gnome2 and
  .gconf directories to get rid of any gnome-display-properties
  configuration files. So far no luck. My best guess would be that this
  bug is related to the window manager somehow. My last try was to nuke
  all hidden files in my home folder, it did not work. :(

  I am using properitary nvidia drivers (i checked and found them not to
  be the source of the problem) and have a samsung 225mw LCD 22"
  widescreen.
