Very often there is a problem with the focus window. When you click on a window or a button (minimize, maximize, window icon) in the window, is active window is not what was expected or focus is transferred but the previous window hangs from the top. Becomes virtually impossible to work there very often.

Comment 1 leigh scott 2011-11-16 21:34:28 UTC
Can you report this upstream as I not patching any bugs in compiz development.

Comment 2 Alexei Panov 2011-11-16 21:56:06 UTC
I can file a bug upstream, but that's your responsibility as a package maintainer to stay in close contact with upstream development, to provide help to distro users with gathering the data needed and to work as a connecting point between user and developer experience.
Closing bugs without even checking that bug is indeed filed upstream is not a good maintaining practice.
