Description Jason Ekstrand 2014-04-18 16:38:33 UTC

The problem is that the desktop shell does not properly attach to the signals of seats that get added after the shell is initialized.  This results in xdg_surface.[de]activate events not being sent to clients when running under the RDP or Wayland backends.

This is fixed by the following patch:

    desktop-shell: Properly handle seat hotplugging
    
    Previously, desktop-shell would only create its internal shell_seat object
    for each seat available when the desktop-shell module is loaded.  This is a
    problem any time seats are created dynamically.  In particular, the Wayland
    and RDP backends create seats on an as-needed basis and they weren't
    getting picked up proprely by desktop-shell.
