#493355 kwin: strange behaviour with apps running in fullscreen mode

I used to use separate desktops for some applications like konsole or emacs.
I tune window specific settings to run each of these apps on a separate desktop
in a fullscreen mode.

Now I've upgraded from etch to lenny and noticed a behaviour change which
makes me upset. Following steps should reproduce it:
 1) Run konsole and press ctrl-shift-F to switch to fullscreen view.
 2) Switch to another desktop.
 3) Run another application, e.g. konqueror.
 4) Switch back to the desktop where konsole is running.

Notice? The kicker is on top of the fullscreen konsole, though the focus is
in the konsole window. You can try to explicitly bring focus to the konsole
window, but kicker will stay. The only way to get rid of kicker is to
click into the konsole window, then switch to any other desktop and switch
back again.

Such behaviour doesn't depend of the app running in fullscreen mode. Tested
with konsole, konqueror and emacs.

This is either kwin's bug or kicker's one.

Hello
  You've reported the following bug in Debian BTS:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=493355

  Are you able to reproduce it with a recent version of the package ?
  If yes, which version ?
  if no, can we close this old bug report ?

  thanks

Hi Olivier

2010/4/10 Olivier Vitrat <ovit.debian@gmail.com>:

What do you mean by recent version? According to packages.debian.org
the reported version is the most recent version of kwin in Debian. And
yes, it is reproducable on several lenny boxes of mine and my friends.
If you mean KDE 4 then I'm not able to test it because I have no
testing installation. Sorry.
