maybe it is interesting that, before i got it working under wayland as I want it to be, I reverted back for a while to xorg.
It was after I got the hints here to uninstall extensions, that I did that, and only then got back to the wayland session. I dont know why it should be, but it could also be that intermittently using xorg might have fixed something, even though it sound strange.+ The information about the extensions is interesting... and strange. People need their desktop environments to do specific things. The need for more extensions is mainly since Gnome made huge changes and introduced gnome-shell, which had many things of the previous gnome missing. So it's natural and also necessary for many users to get that functionality back. I normally dont install obscure extensions from the internet - but the ones I had solved also another problem. The fact that an update resulted in the nextcloud application being not working well anymore. If I install extensions from regular ubuntu packages I am assuming they are fine to use. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1950925 Title: alt-tab doesnt work anymore after upgrade to 21.10 Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I want to swicth windows with alt-tab. This worked until before I just upgraded from 21.4 to 21.10. Now nothing happens anymore. In Settings -> Keyboard -> Customize Shortcuts -> Navigation the Shortcut for "Switch Windows" is set to alt-tab, but pressing these doesnt do anything. Super-Tab works, but it switches applications, not windows.
