If I am using xfwm4-4.4.1-r1, and I do a Quick Find ("Search for text when I start typing") in Firefox, and then I switch to a different window, Firefox regains focus after the Quick Find bar disappears. This can be annoying, since if I am typing then Firefox will open the Quick Find bar again. This does not happen with twm. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Enable "Search for text when I start typing" in Firefox 2. Type something 3. Switch to another window 4. Wait for the Quick Find bar to close Actual Results: Firefox regains focus Expected Results: Firefox does not regain focus Portage 2.1.3.19 (default-linux/x86/2007.0/desktop, gcc-4.1.2, glibc-2.6.1-r0, 2.6.22-gentoo-r5 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.22-gentoo-r5 i686 Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 3.06GHz Timestamp of tree: Mon, 19 Nov 2007 21:30:01 +0000 ccache version 2.4 [disabled] app-shells/bash: 3.2_p17 dev-java/java-config: 1.3.7, 2.0.33-r1 dev-lang/python: 2.3.5-r3, 2.4.4-r6 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r6 dev-util/ccache: 2.4-r7 sys-apps/baselayout: 1.12.9-r2 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.18.1-r2 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.61-r1 sys-devel/automake: 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10 sys-devel/binutils: 2.18-r1 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.3.16 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.24 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.23-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium4 -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/share/X11/xkb /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/gconf /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo /etc/texmf/web2c /etc/udev/rules.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium4 -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="distlocks metadata-transfer sandbox sfperms strict unmerge-orphans userfetch" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://adelie.polymtl.ca/ http://mirrors.tds.net/gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j3" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --delete-after --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages --filter=H_**/files/digest-*" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X acl acpi aim alsa berkdb bitmap-fonts cairo cdr cli cracklib crypt dbus dri dvd dvdr dvdread emacs emboss encode esd evo fam firefox flac fortran gdbm gif gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 hal iconv ipv6 isdnlog jpeg kerberos ldap mad midi mikmod mmx mozilla mp3 mpeg mudflap ncurses nls nodrm nptl nptlonly ogg opengl openmp pam pcre pdf perl png povray pppd python qt3 qt3support qt4 quicktime readline reflection sdl session spell spl sse sse2 ssl svg tcpd tetex tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts unicode v4l2 vorbis win32codecs x86 xml xorg xv zlib" ALSA_CARDS="ali5451 als4000 atiixp atiixp-modem bt87x ca0106 cmipci emu10k1 emu10k1x ens1370 ens1371 es1938 es1968 fm801 hda-intel intel8x0 intel8x0m maestro3 trident usb-audio via82xx via82xx-modem ymfpci" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty extplug file hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear meter mulaw multi null plug rate route share shm softvol" ELIBC="glibc" INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse evdev" KERNEL="linux" LCD_DEVICES="bayrad cfontz cfontz633 glk hd44780 lb216 lcdm001 mtxorb ncurses text" USERLAND="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="nvidia" Unset: CPPFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, LINGUAS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS
I should add that enabling xfwm4's "Activate focus stealing prevention" option does not fix this problem.
You should take these into upstream [1], nothing we can do about these inside ebuild(s). Or use forums if you need advice. [1] http://bugzilla.xfce.org
