I have to admit that I "touched a running system" again ;-) |
2 |
|
3 |
My thinkpad runs gentoo linux x86, some unstable packages as well, I |
4 |
upgraded to Gnome 2.28 a few days ago. |
5 |
|
6 |
Yes, this could as well got to the mythtv-users-list but I assume the |
7 |
problem isn't with mythtv ... |
8 |
|
9 |
The symptoms: |
10 |
|
11 |
When I start mythfrontend it opens but somehow "kills" the display of |
12 |
the window borders ... the windowmanager seems to be hit somehow. |
13 |
|
14 |
Alt-Tab doesn't work anymore, the mythfrontend doesn't react to my |
15 |
keyboard, the mouse moves and selects but doesn't set the focus. When I |
16 |
click a gnome-term-windows it doesn't come upfront. |
17 |
|
18 |
ps -ef shows metacity running, I don't see any particular errors in the |
19 |
usual places (/var/log/messages, Xorg.0.log, etc). |
20 |
|
21 |
I reemerged xorg-server (1.6), xorg-drivers, rebuilt a fresh xorg.conf, |
22 |
rebuilt mythtv etc etc |
23 |
|
24 |
AND: Starting OpenOffice shows similar effects! Window border disappears |
25 |
etc. |
26 |
|
27 |
I assume this might have to do with qt somehow? |
28 |
|
29 |
There were quite some qt-related updates as well done ... |
30 |
|
31 |
I do perfectly understand that using unstable packages *could* lead to |
32 |
such a situation. |
33 |
|
34 |
My q is just: Has anyone here seen this as well? |
35 |
Any hint on what path to follow? Downgrade ... ? |
36 |

Thanks in advance for any help ... Stefan |
