This debate on losing focus has cropped on on at least two lists I read and
on the Apple support forums. I have seen a number of candidates listed as
the cause (e.g. third-party update agents, iCal agents, iTunes agents, &c.),
and in many cases users have reported that stopping those agents fixes the
problem. But in the follow ups, most report back that the fix was
temporary. The only thing I can say is that on my SL 2010 iMac and MBP, the
loss is so fast that it is not noticeable in most cases. But then, I'll
probably have to recall that statement now that I have made it publically
*8^) I suspect there is a cargo cult lurking in this real anomaly.
Do you use rootless or rooted (ie, fullscreen) mode?
rootless, and on my old PPC the loss was enough that I dropped
characters while typing in an xterm. Sometimes entire words would be
lost. In other cases the text would go to the wrong window, which I
think is caused by an intersection of this bug and the one where coming
out of screen sleep causes the x11 windows to be on top but not with
focus.
