I realise this is an old bug, hopefully this is of help: I run Xfreerdp on Ubuntu Gnome, X64, 15.10. I use xfreerdp to maintain a rdp session to a Windows 10 machine, primarily in full screen mode.
Several times per day my keyboard becomes unresponsive, and/or the mouse does not work or does only work on some parts of the screen. This is why I think this might be the same bug. When this happens I find that Ubuntu has generated a notification message on the ubuntu desktop: Updates available, and mail notifications mostly. It seems as if the focus is lost and can't be regained anymore. I do see the terminal from where the rdp session was started react to keyboard input though. Most often CTRL+Enter does not work anymore when this happens, but if it does it is enough to regain the focus. Otherwise CTRL+C will end the session, and that mostly works. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to freerdp in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/712702 Title: xfreerdp stops responding to keyboard input for no apparent reason Status in freerdp package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: For no apparent reason, xfreerdp stops responding to keyboard input but does still respond to mouse clicks and gestures. The workaround is to close the xfreerdp window and reconnect to the server as the same user. Upon reconnecting, everything works as expected (until keyboard is lost again).
