Description Stas Sergeev 2014-10-24 20:21:42 UTC
Description of problem:
If I type something with Russian Legacy XKB kayout
and then with rusle (ibus-table), firefox menus stop
working.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ibus-table-1.9.1-1.fc19.noarch

How reproducible:
Almost always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. In control center add "Русская (устаревшая)" XKB
and "русский (устаревшая)" from ibus-tables.
2. Run firefox and navigate to google.com
3. Switch to "Русская (устаревшая)" XKB and type something
in a search field
4. Switch to "русский (устаревшая)" from ibus-tables and
type sometime in a search field
5. Press Right mouse button
5a. Click any menu from tool bar

Actual results:
Menus do not appear. In fact, they do but for a very
short period, almost invisible.

Expected results:
Menus should still work.

Additional info:
The effect is very similar to this:

but the conditions look entirely different.

Comment 1 Mike FABIAN 2014-10-25 12:48:06 UTC
I cannot reproduce that.

(Fedora 20, ibus-table-1.9.1-1.fc20.noarch, firefox-33.0-1.fc20.x86_64)

I had this effect several times myself already, but I could never 
reproduce it again, it seems quite random to me so far.

Comment 3 Stas Sergeev 2014-10-25 12:57:01 UTC
You mean you _can_ reproduce that, although
not very reliably?
Maybe trying F19 will help?
If not, let me know what info or debugging I
can do for you. I am getting this problem very
easily.

I mean I cannot reproduce it using the procedure you gave in comment#0.

It sometimes “happens” me but I am pretty sure it also happened
to me when I was not using ibus-table at all.

Comment 5 Stas Sergeev 2014-10-26 09:24:52 UTC
Yes, if I restart an X server, it isn't
reproduceable for some time. Something
else needs to be done before the algorithm
of comment#0 starts working...

Comment 6 Stas Sergeev 2014-11-04 12:19:49 UTC
If this will ever happen to you again, please
do the following:
1. re-open firefox
2. make sure menus work again
3. proceed with the steps in comment #0.
They will work. You can repeat the experiment any
times you want, but as soon as you re-start the X
server, something else needs to be done to make it
repeatable again.

Comment 7 Stas Sergeev 2014-11-23 21:31:23 UTC
Actually this bug is very reproducable and
very annoying.
Mike, may I ask you to keep the both layouts
configured, so that you can do that test from
time to time when working with ff? I guess
just 2-3 times in a day and you'll reproduce
that very soon...

Comment 8 Fedora End Of Life 2015-01-09 21:32:15 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora 
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is 
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no 
longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will
be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 19 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 9 Fedora End Of Life 2015-02-18 11:51:58 UTC
Fedora 19 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-01-06. Fedora 19 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
