Strange Focus losing while typing!?

Post by tasty_minerals »

This is a weird issue and is quite difficult to describe in words, but I'll try. It happens quite often when I try to type anything anywhere in my system. For example I open terminal and try to type a command and then click another window, then, when I return to my terminal(after some time), I can't type there anything, I can move it or minimize it, but cant type in there. This happens to almost any box, where you can type some input - it just suddenly freezes and locks, so you can't type anything. So to unfreeze it I have to switch to another window or open up a new terminal window and type random characters there, or I can just tap my touchpad twice in the frozen terminal, then I can continue typing in this terminal. It looks like a window loses focus and locks up, but I have no clue why this can happen. I use a laptop, this issue happens no matter whether my touchpad enabled or disabled. It is not very annoying, as I can quickly unfreeze the input box, but it is still a little strange.
I need help or advice of what can be done here? Just any tip.

Hi,

Is it safe to assume this happens in other software also?

Anyway, an you try to create another user and see if you have the issues?
