Description Bojan Smojver 2008-05-18 23:24:52 UTC

Description of problem:
I'm having a feeling I'm getting hit by something that may have been fixed upstream:

http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=xorg/app/compiz.git;a=commit;h=67bc2cd6e4b00439d865493f4e46b1c2c608be77
http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=xorg/app/compiz.git;a=commit;h=a8c7c895483f7450a9d5292372a9088f5c5a62e6

Full shortlog is here:

http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=xorg/app/compiz.git;a=shortlog;h=compiz-0.7.4

Essentially, sometimes when workspace is changed by clicking to a different
workspace rectangle in workspace switcher, compiz quickly flicks to that new
workspace, but then returns back to the old one (I'm guessing due to focus being
put onto a window on that old workspace). I'm not using the "workspaces on a
cube" option, nor wobbly windows.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.7.2-3.fc9

How reproducible:
Sometimes.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Do something in a window on one workspace (e.g. Evolution).
2. Use workspace switcher to change workspaces.
3. See compiz occasionally flick back to old workspace.
  
Actual results:
Returns workspace to the old one, not the one selected in workspace switcher.

Expected results:
Should not do that (i.e. it should honour user's workspace request).

Additional info:
I think this is fixed in 0.7.4, so something as simple as a rebuild may help.
See URLs from compiz git.

BTW, I'm running "Select windows when mouse moves over them" setting. You may
not observe this bug without that being set.
