focus stealing by xterm/tmux in Slackware -current
by pisti from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5MF2D)
since i installed Slackware -current (a year ago) i have this problem of focus stealing by one single xterm window inside a fvwm session. i shh from that xterm window to my main server where i connect to a tmux session. within tmux i run various applications from which one seems to be associated with this focus stealing problem, that is actions or activities (messages and such) within the alpine mail client.
you can imagine that this is a very annoying problem : you type in any window and suddenly the focus falls on that xterm/tmux window with unpleasant consequences, depending on which pane or window is active within tmux, that need to be un-done somehow.
now, the chain is long, and i don't know who is the culprit : tmux, xterm, fvwm or alpine - decreasing in that order ? but this problem surfaced after the Slack-Current installation on the local machine, so that would again point it on fvwm or xterm ? who can help ?
