focus problem - Rage_ATWM - 07-15-2010
Ok, maybe not the most disturbing bug but here i go anyway:
When i launch Nexuiz, let's say half of the time, I briefly see the loading page, and then i automatically come back to my desktop, without doing anything. Then, when i try to manually put nexuiz as the active app again, i go back to my desktop several times. When i try this, typically 4 or 5 times, i finally get Nexuiz permanently.
Quite rarely, it also happens when I'm playing...
I feel it could be highly dependent on my very OS config, and so on...
I run Nexuiz 2.5.2, on a HP laptop, under windows vista.
Any idea?

Get rid of Windows Vista. (lol)
Do You have any security-related software? Antivirus, Antimalware, Antispam, Antiwall, i mean Firewall, uh, what else is there.... i forgot the name. Or do You have sidebar/widgets on the desktop? Or maybe it's some other process in the system tray. Could be the CPU frequency/policy being dynamically changed, since you're on a laptop. Something like that.

I'm a docile user now

Something like that.Actually, I found where this problem comes from: whenever I have an open firefox window, the problem occurs. Just weird.
Anyway, I suspect it mainly depends on my very config.

Times when anyone with a desktop-user distribution had to compile a Linux kernel are pretty far...
