focus problem with Kubuntu Jaunty bêta

[Olivier Subilia]

I have a severe focus problem with jaunty Beta.

At every moment, my mouse lose the focus and I can't select anything. It's like the top window is no more recognized; sometimes using the mouse right button on an application window, I get the contextual menu for desktop.

As a workaround, I can do following (with y=actual virtual desktop):

ctrl-Fx (x being different from the curent desktop); ctrl-Fy (y being the initial desktop), immediatly click in the part of a window I want to use, and that's it. But if I want to use another part of the window (say button bar instead of hyperlinks in konqueror, for example), I must repeat the procedure.

I've an nvidia GeForce 8800 GTS, but I don't use the proprietary drivers at the moment (same problem with nvidia 180 driver).

For me such a system is not usable.

Hoping it can be helpfull.

Best regards

Another workaround:

1) start system
2) log (with kdm) as #user
3) disconnect
4) re-log as #user, and everything functions (but no 3d effects available).

Quite strange.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
Is this bug reproducible with the Latest Lucid or Maverick packages ?
Thanks in advance.

Bug no more present in Lucid, at least.
