Server side is 2.4-20180926r20530-1

Using 2.4-20180922r20503-1 on the client side works as expected.

[Thomas B. Rücker]

Just in case, two more logs.
2.4-20180926r20530-1 and then 2.4-20180922r20503-1

[Thomas B. Rücker]

OK, different lead. It seems like it might be related to my two different client setups.

• At work my laptop is connected additionally to two 4k Displays. xpra content mostly runs at 1920,2160 + 1080p
• While not at work it's just the internal 1080p panel at origin 0,0

Awesome WM locks some of the windows in maximized. Not always this reaches the remote session persistently, but often some of the windows will again be maximized upon reconnecting.

Could it be that there is input coordinate confusion? AKA inputs being routed to the wrong coordinates due to stale position information? minimizing/maximizing seemed to help in one case.

Also I just went back to 2.4-20180926r20530 and didn't have input problems. So it's not a problem between the two versions, sorry for the confusion.

[Antoine Martin]

Looks like this could be a duplicate of #2036

[Antoine Martin]

tbr: are you using the xpra repository?
Do you have our patched dummy driver installed?
If not, then that could well be the problem: #349 (r8060 / r14584).

[Thomas B. Rücker]

It's likely a dupe / the original report for #2036 or #2054.

Fo far I didn't have time to dig in and try to debug the cause of this myself.
