Subject: metacity: focus issue with fullscreen window on dual screen

Date: Mon, 21 Jan 2008 19:10:50 +0100

Package: metacity
Version: 1:2.20.2-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

I'm using the default configuration, upgraded from stable. I have 3
windows open: a browser on the left screen, a term and a player on the
right (iceweasel, gnome-terminal and amarok). The term is in fullscreen.

When cycling through windows using Alt+Tab to go from the player to the
browser, the browser at the left handside gains focus as expected, but
on the right screen, the terminal comes up too, hiding the player behind
it.

Cheers, Paul

Can you reproduce this issue with metacity 2.22 now in unstable ?

What is your dual head setup? MergedFB, Xinerama, XRandR ?
