What I meant by 'doesn't seem to' is that it doesn't work, but I was allowing the possibility that I was doing something wrong. I think the rest should be clear. There are two problems:
1) changing the preference option to having the window made current when the mouse moves over it doesn't have any effect. The steps you take are mentioned above. 2) when the option mentioned in (1) is *not* supposed to be in effect - i.e. when you are using click to raise the window, clicking in a window sometimes has no effect. By saying 'sometimes' I mean that sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't and I can't find any clear way of reproducing it consistently - other than just using the system. It happens frequently enough to be distracting (every few window changes, where 'few' means somewhere between, say, 4 and 10 though I don't have a record, and I'm currently using 5.10 because it's much more stable in other respects). -- window selection problems https://launchpad.net/bugs/45611 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
