Then it's just that the games issues an grab on the pointer... Xwayland is a Wayland client but also an Xserver, which behaves like any other Xserver for the X11 clients, so if a client (the game) issues an acive pointer grab on the pointer, no other X11 cleitns will receive pointer events, that's the purpose of a grab. However, ther eis no active grabs in Wayland, so other Wayland native clients are not affected by the X11 grab issued by the X11 cleints, which matches exactly what you describe. To demonstrate that, I attached a very simple reproducer written in gtk2. If you compile and run that reproducer on Wayland/Xwayland, it will bejave the same, no other X11 client wil lreceive pointer events as long as the client is running, whereas other Wayland native clients will remain unaffected. In other words, this is normal.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
