Issue 97: xmonad stops responding to keyboard input after running xscreensaver http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=97 Comment #3 by Adr3nalD0S: I have been seeing something very similar lately. Xscreensaver is configured to require a password after a minute. Before that happens I can jiggle the mouse and happily return to my desktop, where all is well. But, once it reaches the point of needing to prompt me, I am in trouble. I can enter my password and get back to Xmonad, but at this point it does not respond to key presses. However, as previously reported Ctrl+Alt+Backspace will exit X. There is another way I can get out of this situation. I have two monitors in a side-by-side configuration and I have an application running on both monitors, I can move the mouse from one to the other and back, focus-follows-mouse will switch the focus between the windows, At this point, Xmonad begins responding to keypresses again. But, if I only have one application on a single monitor, then I cannot get Xmonad to respond. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
