This is happening to me now with Gnome on Ubuntu 22.04.3. I'm going to document all the behaviors I see, and I think I have reproduction steps (taking a screenshot when a context menu is open, maybe specifically with shutter), but I need to reboot to verify the exact steps.
Observations while it is stuck: - Core issue: Window focus cannot be changed with the mouse. - But it can with the keyboard. Alt-Tab still works. - On the focused window: All mouse functions work: left / right / middle / wheel / hover - On other windows: ONLY hover and wheel (scroll) DO WORK. No clicks whatsoever - On the upper or lower gnome toolbars: nothing works. No clicks, no hovers. But the clock time is still correct, so they're "working" - If I tap META, it opens the activities ui, but no mouse functions work (click/hover/wheel), but I can hit TAB or start typing to search for an app to launch / use arrow keys to navigate the interface. - Regarding window adjustments (resize by borders, drag by title, close/maximize buttons) - Google Chrome responds differently than all other windows. I assume this is due to Chrome's custom window decorations. - Google Chrome can still be resized and dragged by title and closed / maximized / etc - Non-custom window decorations (gnome-terminal, gimp, shutter, vscode, Chrome's debug tools, etc) cannot be dragged, resized, or closed by their window decorations. - META-click to drag and resize does not work for any windows, Google Chrome included. - Changing workspaces with keyboard still works. When you do so, as always, one window in the new workspace is focused, so it's the only working window. - Running xev (and then closing it) did not fix it - Killing shutter did not fix it - Taking a second screenshot with shutter does not fix it. I think that's all I can observe, I'll reboot now, and edit / update if I can reproduce it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/362359 Title: Focus gets stuck to a window - impossible to select other windows To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/362359/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
