Warren, do you use the focus-on-click mode for window manager? or you have never touched any configuration with gnome-window-properties say? please check /apps/metacity/general/focus_mode gconf key if you use metacity.

click

I don't recall changing any settings.

Comment 3 Akira TAGOH 2009-04-06 01:44:09 UTC

Thanks. well, imsettings doesn't do any real work to switch immodule but just sets the gconf key and gtk+ changes it on the focus change. I haven't looked at the source code for ibus immodule though, I guess it may assumes an input context is valid after focus is coming back?

or this needs to be confirmed, if this won't happens with a step like 1) disconnect 2) back to apps 3) reconnect again with imsettings 4) back to apps again, gtk+ might just reuse a old instance since it may looks like no immodule changed because unfortunately there are no implementation so far in gtk+ to update immodule except on the focus change.

ideally IM change would be applied immediately to resolve an issue not destroying old IM process. but ibus could has a workaround to validate if an input context is sane and reconnect as needed.

I fixed in ibus-1_1_0_20090407-1_fc11. Please test it.
