Description Joachim Frieben 2015-03-23 15:40:23 UTC
Description of problem:
As of current Fedora 22, keyboard focus sticks to the first instance of gnome-terminal even when later instances get the focus.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-shell-3.15.92-2.fc22

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Login to GNOME Wayland session.
2. Launch first instance of gnome-terminal.
3. Type some characters.
4. Launch second instance of gnome-terminal.
5. Focus second instance of gnome-terminal.
6. Type some characters.

Actual results:
Input appears in first instance of gnome-terminal.

Expected results:
Input appears in second instance of gnome-terminal.

Additional info:
- This only happens in a GNOME Wayland session.
- Issue does not depend on the focus mode.
- Video chip is an AMD RV620.

Comment 1 Joachim Frieben 2015-04-20 14:54:58 UTC
Still broken in gnome-shell-3.16.1-1.fc22.

Comment 2 Nick Thomas 2015-04-23 21:19:07 UTC
I've just updated to f22 (from f21) and am also seeing this.

Graphics card is an AMD radeon 7970 (TAHITI 0x1002:0x6798 0x1002:0x3000), using the FOSS "radeon" driver. I think. Normally I'd check the xorg log ;)

gnome-terminal version is 3.16.1-1.fc22

Doesn't happen with an alternative terminal emulator (terminator).

Comment 3 Joachim Frieben 2015-05-19 18:06:29 UTC
No improvement for the current Fedora 22 branch including gnome-shell-3.16.2-1.fc22.

Comment 4 Florian Müllner 2015-05-20 15:05:45 UTC
Can you confirm comment #2 that this only happens with gnome-terminal? In that case I wouldn't discard a terminal issue ...

Comment 5 Joachim Frieben 2015-05-21 09:55:45 UTC
(In reply to Florian Müllner from comment #4)
This issue only appears for gnome-terminal.

Comment 6 fujiwara 2015-06-18 08:06:41 UTC
Ctrl+Shift+t also does not work in Wayland.

Comment 7 Berend De Schouwer 2015-08-11 08:30:58 UTC
Also happens on an Intel Broadwell integrated graphics chip, 8086:1616.

I've only seen it in gnome-terminal.

I can't always duplicate it.

Comment 8 Joachim Frieben 2015-09-06 03:58:56 UTC
Focus issue has been resolved for the current Fedora 23 branched tree but not for Fedora 22.

Comment 9 Fedora End Of Life 2016-07-19 13:09:56 UTC
Fedora 22 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-07-19. Fedora 22 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.

Comment 10 fujiwara 2016-07-20 04:47:51 UTC
Verified fixed in Fedora 24.

Comment 11 Joachim Frieben 2016-07-20 12:57:31 UTC
Issue was actually resolved by errata issued for Fedora 22 during its support cycle, e.g. in the last live respin F22-x86_64-WORK-20151217.
