Description of problem: This is very fuzzy stuff which I'm just recording to get on record, not sure if it is one bug or many or even if the ATI driver is the right component to use. Testing fc7t4 I have a gnome session up, desktop effects turned on, and am downloading the latest updates via yumex. While waiting for updates to download, I try to run the neverputt game. It seems to come up for a second, then pops out of existance when the yumex app updates its progress bars. I bring up a terminal and give it the focus rather than yumex. I can now run neverputt without it disappearing almost instantly. I can't explain why an "active" app having the focus when I bring up neverputt would make neverputt crash, I merely observe that it works better when a much more "passive" app has the focus. Having gotten neverputt to stay up long enough to play with it, I now try dragging it to a different location. It moves, but the original neverputt window contents remains on the screen in the original location. I start trying to play a game and almost immediately, the neverputt app quits again, and this time (God knows why), it takes my USB mouse with it. Keyboard (also USB) still works, but mouse is gone, plugging and unplugging doesn't help. As soon as yumex finishes updating system, I Alt-TAB to the terminal I have up and type reboot. Then submit this bugzilla :-) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Hard to know exactly where any blame might lie, here is a selection of possibly relevant packages from the system: xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.6.3-2.fc7 xorg-x11-drivers-7.2-5.fc7 neverball-1.4.0-8.fc7 compiz-0.3.6-8.fc7 mesa-libGL-6.5.2-10.fc7 kernel-2.6.21-1.3116.fc7 How reproducible: Didn't try this particular sequence again, but I've seen the window moving problem before as well as neverputt disappearing. I never have these problems with neverputt in a "normal" X session with no desktop effects turned on. Steps to Reproduce: 1. see description Actual results: Expected results: Additional info: Hardware might be relevant here: AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+ dual core cpu, 2 gig memory Sapphire Radeon X700 Pro PCIe video adaptor BIOSTAR TForce4U socket 939 motherboard.
