[Bug 878859] Re: gnome applications grab mouse input when the menu bar is shift-clicked while gnome-settings-daemon is running

 

I have done some more investigation on this and found the following bug
report: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=650943

Clicking in the resize box triggers the mouse grab even when not running
gnome-settings-daemon. I have also tested with non-GNOME gtk2 and gtk3
apps, and it happens only in the gtk3 ones, so I'm reassigning this to
libgtk-3-0.

** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #650943
   https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=650943

** Package changed: gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu) => gtk+3.0 (Ubuntu)

** Summary changed:

- gnome applications grab mouse input when the menu bar is shift-clicked while gnome-settings-daemon is running
+ GTK3 applications grab mouse input when the menu bar or the resize-grip are clicked

Title:
  GTK3 applications grab mouse input when the menu bar or the resize-
  grip are clicked

Status in “gtk+3.0” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Since I updated to 11.10 last Friday gnome-terminal has been grabbing my mouse input every few days.
  First I noticed that my mouse clicks and movement stopped being noticed by all apps, and the people in #ubuntu-x told me that it was likely a client had grabbed the mouse, so I killed my running processes one by one, until killing gnome-terminal solved it.
  Today it happened again, my first measure was killing gnome-terminal, and that solved it, confirming gnome-terminal is the culprit.
  I have not yet noticed any pattern in what triggers the problem, and I'm not sure on how I should act to find it out.
