I've seen this happen on my Fedora Core 1 box (with gtk+ 2.2.4) and Fedora Core
2 (with 2.4.something). When I build the Gnome2::Wnck package and run tests,
the tests all succeed. But something in one of the tests leaves the window
manager (metacity) with a fried understanding of the workspace layout. I have a
2x2 layout (with a pager in the taskbar). Think of it as:
A B
C D
Before running the test, ctrl-alt-<arrow> moves between these just fine--
c-a-up from C moves to A, from A or B does nothing. c-a-left from B moves to A,
from A or C does nothing, etc.
*After* I've run "make test", the pager is still OK if I use the mouse to
select a workspace. However, the keys are screwy: c-a-down from A *should* go
to C, but it goes to B. c-a-left from B goes to D. It's as though metacity sees
the workspaces as:
C A
D B
Worse, I can't get them back unless I exit GNOME and log in again-- even
killing metacity and letting it respawn doesn't fix it.
Any ideas what might cause this? I just encountered this with the latest
version on the download site.
