Losing focus on screen.
« on: July 12, 2013, 01:58:50 PM »

The linux machine that i use acts up when i alt-tab out of the game. The biggest problem is i CANNOT return focus to the game. I wonder if thins is a bug with the code or if it is my gnome classic acting up.

Specs: Release 12.04 (precise) 64-bit
          Kernel Linux 3.2.0-48-generic
          GNOME 3.4.2

Hmm. Well, I'm not seeing the issue on Ubuntu, but beyond that, I really can't say. Have you tried running other OpenGL games? Minecraft? It could be a bug in gnome, or in the game, or in LWJGL (the library that allows OpenGL use from Java).

I don't think the game does anything special re: focus management, but that's hardly definitive...

Could be that it is compiz acting up as well. It only happens in full screen and only with this game so it could be compiz/gnome freaking out with full screen. I mean its not that big of an issue i just need to remember to save often :).
