Re: x11 fullscreen kills command-tab?



well, at least that's three of us. It's driving me crazy too.

One thing one of us should try is to create another user account on the machine and see if we can duplicate the problem in that account too.

I searched for bug reports about this at apple at one point, but haven't looked in a while. perhaps we should search again, and post one if we can't find anything. it's hard to search for though.. what keywords to use? besides the obvious 'X11' of course.

FWIW I'm also struggling with this. Up until now I thought it was just my setup and when it became too much of a nuisance, I simply logged out/in. I would dearly like to know why this happens, and a fix would simply be great!

I turned off the full access keyboard option which I typically have on before starting x11. but after a while the command-tab stopped working again. so it's not related to the full access keyboard anyway.

that's too bad.

sleep makes no difference for me. I've had an X11 session in which I haven't gone to sleep at all and it still causes the problem. and yes, expose no longer works for me as well. also, the quicksilver invocation key no longer works (command-space)

it's killing me, I wish we could figure out what's wrong.

let me know if you turn up anything, and I will as well

I've tried switching to a different keyboard map and back, that didn't help.

next time it comes up, I'm going to try disabling and reenabling full access keyboard which I normally have on, and I'll probably try disabling full access before starting x11 once too.

Subject: x11 fullscreen kills command-tab?


Hello, I've taken to running apple's X11 in full screen mode, using
ratpoison as a window manager.

it works great, but I find that using X11 for very long leaves me with
an aqua session where command-tab, command-~, and quicksilver's hotkey
no longer work. respawning finder and dock doesn't fix it. the only fix
I have found is to log out and log back in.


has anyone else seen this? (and better yet, know how to fix it?)

This happens to me when I put my powerbook to sleep with the X11 root
showing. In addition to command-tab, Expose also stops working. I
believe I asked on this email list before but got no workaround other
than logging out/in or rebooting.
