Description Tony Tsui 2004-10-15 00:16:14 UTC 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.3)
Gecko/20041012 Epiphany/1.4.4

Description of problem:
With Xinerama enabled clicking on the window title bar causes metacity
to freeze. The mouse cursor has a "+" next to it, but you can't click
on anything else or use the keyboard.

I tested with TWM and it does not have this problem. Also I tested the
same version of Metacity in FC2 and it does not have this problem.

The hardware I'm using is dual head Matrox G450.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
metacity-2.8.5-2
xorg-x11-6.8.1-4

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Xinerama
2. Click on the window title bar
    

Actual Results:  Mouse cursor has a "+" next to it. You can't click on
anything else or use the keyboard

Expected Results:  You should be able to use the mouse as normal.

Can you try metacity 2.8.6 as well?
Comment 2 Havoc Pennington 2004-10-18 21:57:55 UTC 
This doesn't happen if you disable xinerama with the same video card
and same metacity, right?
Comment 3 Tony Tsui 2004-10-19 01:29:51 UTC 
Hi,

I just updated from rawhide to metacity-2.8.6-2 and xorg-x11-6.8.1-6
and this problem is no longer present.

FYI this didn't happen when xinerama was disabled with the same metacity.

Thanks.
