Description Bill Nottingham 2011-03-09 17:00:15 UTC
Description of problem:

Most easily noticed when using virt, and a stray alt-tab happens to hit the focused VM.

anaconda appears locked to both, so it may not have any functional issues, but it seems a bit weird.

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

15.20.1

How reproducible:

100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Happen to hit alt-tab
2. See the workspace dialog
  
Additional info:

This was a lorax-built tree, FWIW.

Patch is awaiting review:

This is a low risk change, I am proposing this as an F15 nice-to-have.

Comment 3 Adam Williamson 2011-03-18 18:43:21 UTC
Discussed at 2011-03-18 blocker/NTH review meeting, we agreed this is a low-impact fix and worth taking for Beta if anaconda team decides to pull it. AcceptedNTH.

lorax-0.3.2-1.fc15 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 15.

Comment 6 Tim Flink 2011-03-21 20:00:56 UTC
The update does not appear to fix this issue. When installing with a custom boot.iso created with updated lorax, I still see multiple workspaces.

Alt-tab does not change workspaces during installation, if that is the original bug.

To reproduce:
Install with anaconda
Use ctrl-alt- <arrow keys> to switch between multiple workspaces during the install process.

Effect:
Switch between workspaces with identical content, a little strange but not a functional impact.

Hi,

this is not what I am seeing. I fetched this boot.iso:
http://jlaska.fedorapeople.org/boot.iso

the timestamp says:
boot.iso                21-Mar-2011 22:51  282M

alt-tab does nothing for me, ctrl-alt-right displays the workspace switcher but does not allow to switch workspace as there's only Workspace 1. What machine were you testing this on virt or physical?

Ales

Comment 8 Tim Flink 2011-03-22 15:31:12 UTC
My apologies, there was a version mixup on the iso that I used to test. After downloading an updated iso, this is indeed fixed.

Comment 9 Fedora Update System 2011-03-23 04:58:37 UTC
lorax-0.3.2-1.fc15 has been pushed to the Fedora 15 stable repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
