Description Peter Backlund 2004-02-28 10:05:05 UTC
Description of problem:
Sometimes, Metacity does not focus any window at all after switching
desktops. It's very hard to find the exact conditions, but it happens
quite frequently (several times per hour at least).  This is with 8
desktops, switching desktops using keyboard, and with click to focus.  

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
metacity-2.7.0-1

How reproducible:
Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Switch desktop using keys in click-to-focus mode.
2. 
3.
  
Actual results:
Sometimes, when switching to even a desktop with one single maximized
window, the window isn't focused. Also happens with several smaller
windows.  

Expected results:
One window should be focused.

Additional info:
Ususally some part of the panel, like a launcher, gets focus.

Seems to be upstream a few times over (unclear if these are all exact
duplicates):
