I stumbled on this when trying to select something from Klipper to paste into google. As soon as I type Ctrl+Alt+v" to activate Klipper, the Xfree86 (4.3.0-r3) server immediately ceases to respond to keystrokes or mouse clicks on menu buttons. I can still move windows around, but cannot get anything to respond. (Even Ctrl+Alt+Backspace doesn't do anything.) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Put focus in Mozilla browser window 2. Type Ctrl+Alt+v 3. Try typing or clicking on any menu Actual Results: No response to keystrokes or mouse clicks (except to move windows) Expected Results: Normal response Portage 2.0.49-r15 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.2.3, glibc-2.3.2-r3, 2.4.20-gaming-r3) KDE 3.1.4 Mozilla 1.5 ================================================================= System uname: 2.4.20-gaming-r3 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2400+ Gentoo Base System version 1.4.3.10 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -O2 -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="gcc3" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /var/qmail/control /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/3.1/share/config /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -O2 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="sandbox ccache autoaddcvs" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://128.213.5.34/gentoo/ http://gentoo.chem.wisc.edu/gentoo/ http://lug.mtu.edu/gentoo/" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 oss apm encode foomaticdb gnome libg++ mad mikmod mpeg ncurses nls pdflib quicktime xml2 xv directfb gdbm berkdb slang readline tetex svga java mysql sdl gpm tcpd pam libwww ssl perl python esd imlib oggvorbis gtk qt motif opengl mozilla cdr alsa arts avi cups crypt emacs kde gif png jpeg tcltk X xmms zlib truetype spell xinerama"
I cant reproduce this in 4.3.99.16 just for informations purposes.
I have similar behaviour running Xfree-4.3.0-r3 and kde-3.2.0-beta1 and also with kahakai-0.5.1 The results vary a bit more on my system, there are occasions when all keystrokes and mouse-clicks don't respond. But as we speak it's limited to the mouse only. The pointer moves across my screen but clicking on the taskbar/selecting text etc . doesn't work. After I kill a window that's running on my desktop the X server will respond normal again. But this usually only lasts for a short time and then X freezes again.
Does this continue to be a problem?
Assuming fixed
