usermode generates gdk_keyboard_grab errors

[kaboom@skuld kaboom]$ up2date ** (up2date:22413): WARNING **: gdk_keyboard_grab returned 3 [kaboom@skuld kaboom]$ rpm -q up2date up2date-3.9.28-2 [kaboom@skuld kaboom]$ The warning pops up when the GUI appears.... This is on a freshly up2date'd system
hmmm, love those kind of bugs. Must be something bogus in the glade file, I'll see what I can track down... I dont see any references to that method in my code directly. Actually, it could possibly be in userhelper... Do you see the same error if you run: /usr/sbin/up2date ? Dont see this on a 9 or taroon, box, will try a rawhide box if I can.
I only see this intermittently, and I'm not sure why sometimes and not others.
Transferring to usermode -- this appears to happen when consolehelper pops up the password dialog box only, so it's probably a bug there and not up2date
Definitely a usermode problem, since r-c-network does the same thing [kaboom@skuld kaboom]$ redhat-config-network ** (redhat-config-network:18718): WARNING **: gdk_keyboard_grab returned 3
This error (which will change to actual text in 1.70 and later) indicates that the window which attempted to grab the keyboard wasn't yet viewable (in the X sense) at the time consolehelper-gtk tried to do this. I can't duplicate this here to determine if it's safe to suppress the error or not (it probably is, but I'd rather be sure). Which other applications (including window manager, session type, etc.) are running when you get this error? That may help reproduce this.
wm is openbox only other apps are xterms and mozilla
I'm also unable to reproduce this. Please file a new bug against usermode if the problem persists.
