Issue 200: xmonad spins in a tight loop changing focus back and forth http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=200 New issue report by k.kosciuszkiewicz: What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Open office writer 2. Open a dialog window, say CTRL-O for open file 3. Move pointer from floating window to main window changing focus This happens with other apps as well. What is the expected output? What do you see instead? I expect to see the focus changed to main application window. Instead the focus spins back and forth between two windows, and xmonad does not respond to keypresses. They are not discarded though, as when one of the windows is closed, xmonad "executes" all actions related to key events sent before. What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? ghc 6.8.2 xmonad from darcs (0.7) open office 2.4.0 debian linux Please provide any additional information below. While the xmonad changes the focus back and forth, the window borders flicker, yet application windows have no problems in updating their state (say while hovering pointer over a button). Button clicks seem to be added to event queue but they get through to application only after xmonad finishes processing all the queued focus changes.
