KDE's window manager won't raise windows if the focus follows the mouse and you have to click to raise the window while xcompmgr is running.
I can't seem to reproduce this. Are you saying that auto-raise doesn't work for you? What version of xorg and xcompmgr are you running? If it's not the latest xcompmgr, please update from cvs and report back if possible. Thanks.
I'm using 6.8.0. The window won't raise if auto-raise is /not/ turned on, but the focus still follows the mouse. When you click a mouse the window is not raised if it has focus.
Are you sure you don't have "Click raise active window" off? It's an option a little below the auto-raise option. I still can't seem to reproduce the behavior you describe. If that's not the issue, which version of xcompmgr are you using, and have you tried the latest cvs version?
Ijust upgraded to XOrg 6.8.2. This problem still exists and can also be exhibited under WindowMaker 0.90. I have the window focus set to follow the mouse, but not auto-raise so I have to click to raise the window. When I click a focused window to raise it it doesn't get raised. This problem is not exhibited when I'm not using xcompmgr. And should this be placed under the X server or left under xcompmgr? I don't know if it's the composite extension or xcompmgr.
KWin has xcomposite built in in more recent KDE versions you can turn this on and off. Have you tried Kwin's implementation of xcompmgr support? There is no need for xcompmgr anymore if you have a newer KDE.
