Leopard X11 focus loss issue

Hi

I am a new subscriber, so please forgive me if this question has been addressed in the list. I have the bizarre issue that when xterm i launched in leopard, and I click on its window, the window loses focus after about a second. This is extremely frustrating while you are trying to type in the terminal. When you click on the window again, focus is restored, but lost again after about a second. However, clicking on the X11 icon in the dock restores focus to the front-most X11 window which is not then lost — unless you click on the window again.

This means that with more than one X11 window open, to change the active window, you must click on the window - and then on the X11 icon in the dock in order to stop focus from being lost.

Has anyone else experienced this, and is there a workaround?

Thanks
