It uses fvwm-2.6.5 and xterm-279. (xorf.conf is appended.) When I start X, everything is fine - focus follows the cursor. However, after somewhere between a few hours and a few days. this is no longer true. Focus stays with the last window in which there was mouse or keyboard activity. For some windows - e.g. all major browsers, or xemacs - it is possible to release focus by right clicking twice. This does not work for xterm; the only fix is to exit the window. Restarting the apps does not put things back to normal. Neither does resatrting X, or dbus, or hal, or sysmouse. Restarting the system does work ... but has various mild down-sides. Any ideas? I'll settle for any solution that doesn't involve re-booting.
