[Bug 1112061] Re: unity forgets focus-follows-mouse setting across update and reboot

 

Running 14.04. Installed Unity Tweak Tool specifically to let me turn on
focus follows mouse. Did so.

Multiple times now I discover that it has reset itself back to focus
mode "click" through no action on my part.

My best guess it that it can happen mid session, and not just across a
reboot, but I haven't yet specifically noted when it happens exactly,
nor pinned down a cause.

However, when it does happen, the unity tweak tool happily tells me that
the mode is back to "click" instead of "mouse".

This needs a fix.

  I had gone roughly two weeks without rebooting my 12.10 installation.
  After applying updates that included a new kernel today, I rebooted to
  finish the updates.

  Unity forgot my focus-follows-mouse setting across the updates and
  reboot.
