Hi!
When I build a new VM some weeks ago I found the following bug in the focus event handling:
My environment is KDE 3.5 on linux x86.
When I switch from squeak to another application via alt-tab everything is fine. If I switch to another app by selecting one from the taskbar squeak receives a focus in event (which seems to me quite strange given the fact that I just transferred it to another app) with detail NotifyNonlinear. Now we call the method XSetInputFocus which triggers a new focus in event and we are stuck in an endless loop. Actually with alt-tab, squeak receives a focus in event, too. But the call to XSetInputFocus does not trigger the loop.
Well, the looping stops if I alt-tab back to squeak. And I must do this, because with the loop running the app I switched to is behaving a bit strange.
Now I just inserted a break after the "case NotifyNonlinear:" target. This made the bug go away. But I don't know if this has some unwanted side effects. Couldn't find one, yet. But I would like to hear the opinion of someone more proficient in X than me.
