I think I didn't also enough clarify why the behavior is so weird: * When I say the dialog stole all focus, it means that no system-wide shortcuts work either, ranging from switching desktops to things like ctrl-alt-backspace and vt switches! * When I say there is no visual indication, it means that the window stole all focus, but I can still happily make any other window active, click in textboxes, the cursor blinks inside, just no input appears. Aside of numlock working, from all other perspectives it looks as if you just unplugged the keyboard. This is horrible UI. :( -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

And yes, compositing is enabled, if that matters. There is probably some standard way for modal dialogs - both GNOME and KDE applications use it when you are to type root password for administration settings, why doesn't gnome-keyring-ask use it? I think *anytime* global input grab happens, that must be accompanied with some very clear visual cue, since the situation is horribly confusing. And the window manager should always put the window grabbing input globally in foreground. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Not likely, you have already upgraded to newer versions of openSUSE, which had a lot more bug fixes. We believe that this specific bug has been fixed during one of the release cycles; as such, I close the bug as 'FIXED'. Should you be able to reproduce this issue on a newer openSUSE version, please feel to report it again. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
