Subject:   fact-finding: problems after recent Xorg upgrade

	I know this about x11@; I am looking to answer "is it just me?"
before I talk to them.

	System:

FreeBSD 9.0-CURRENT #0: Sat Oct 23 08:15:53 EDT 2010 amd64 
xorg-7.5.1
fvwm-2.5.31
<xorg.conf is appended>

	Since the upgrade to xorg-7.5.1, I have had issues with
... focus, for lack of a better diagnosis.
	Before, as I move the 3x3 desktop focus followed the mouse.  If
I switched panels and the mouse ended over a window, that window
(except in rare case) acquired focus.
	No longer.  The odds of transfering focus are maybe 1 in 4.
Sometimes even the window manager supplied window frame loses focus
while I'm inside the window.
	This can often be fixed by clicking on something the old window
that changes the contents - e.g. a menu-bar button in a browser.
For things without clickables, like xterm, often the only solution
is to exit the window/program and restart.

	Has anyone else seen this behavior, or have insight into what
might be going on?  I'm willing to accept I've failed to recompile
something, or missed a config file setting; I just want things to
work. 

	Respectfully,



					Robert Huff
