Description of problem: Xorg server reports too many EnterNotify and LeaveNotify events even pointer doesn't hit a different window and grab is not active. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): $ rpm -q xorg-x11-server-Xorg xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.6.1.901-1.fc11.x86_64 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. /usr/bin/xev 2. go to the xev window 3. click a mouse button Actual results: Five events are generated: - LeaveNotify (NotifyGrab) - EnterNotify (NotifyUngrab) - KeymapNotify - ButtonPress - ButtonRelease Expected results: No bogus {Leave,Enter}Notify events Additional info: This bug triggered a bug in vncviewer which uses LeaveNotify event to check if pointer moved outside window.
does this happen on the main window or on the small framed subwindow? It only happens on the subwindow for me, and the order of events is - press - enter (grab) - keymap notify - release - leave (ungrab) And this order is correct, since the grab activates on the other window. I checked this with a RHEL 5 box and the order of events is the same.
Sorry for late response. I checked behavior again and it seems it is not same in rawhide and in RHEL5. You can see screenshot of window layout in "broken" session on http://atkac.fedorapeople.org/2009-08-03-182643_1280x1024_scrot.png (I'm using fluxbox WM, I started xterm and then xev, from command line). As you can see every time when I click button I get this order of events: - LeaveNotify (NotifyGrab) - EnterNotify (NotifyUngrab) - KeymapNotify - ButtonPress - ButtonRelease It doesn't look like normal behavior for me. Feel free to ask me if you need access to test machine.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 11 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 11. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '11'. 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 prior to Fedora 11's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 11 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 please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. 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. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
