[Bug 1421483] Re: All keyboard input fails: "IBUS-WARNING **: Events queue growing too big"

 

While I try to replicate without ibus(doesn't look like it's replicating
without it), really there's 3 things going on here

1) ibus process fds are being used: you could see this as an ibus issue (though that wasn't certain until #17)
2) firefox and arora cause the creation of fds within the ibus process which are never cleaned up : I guess you could view that as an ibus issue, but whether it's an ibus issue or arora/firefox issue isn't clear to me
3) chromium-browser, libreoffice, empathy, easytag and gnumeric: silently failed on ibus failure(though in some cases there was a warning warning that something *could*) happen.
