[Bug 483624] Re: konsole lose focus

[James Cuzella]

I am seeing this In Ubuntu using the Gnome desktop as well.  The konsole
window gets into a state where it appears that it has focus, but does
not respond to keyboard input, and has a 'hollow cursor'.  The way I ran
into it was by using multiple konsole windows on different desktops and
switching between them.

I have found a quick way to reproduce this state in Ubuntu Natty 11.04
while using compiz and the wall desktop:

1. On desktop 1, open konsole
1. Press Ctrl+Alt+Down  to switch to desktop 2
2. Open another konsole window and maximize it
3. Press Ctrl+Alt+Up and click the 1st konsole window so it has focus
4. Alternate between the desktops using the Ctrl+Alt+ [ Up / Down ] Arrows
5. Eventually, one of the windows will appear with a hollow cursor and not respond to keyboard input

The 'hollow cursor' is evidence that the window has indeed lost focus,
as evidenced by this changelog entry:

"Hollow out cursor when losing focus."   ( Reference:
http://konsole.kde.org/changelogfull.php )

Ideally, we would want the correct konsole window to have focus,
depending on which desktop we are on.  I am not sure if this is a bug
with the compiz window manager, or with konsole.
