Details

The new XFree package does not work well on my machine: In the GIMP for example, after starting it, then creating a new image, it's not possible to give the focus back to the tool window: when I click it I get the four-arrow cursor and can only drag it.

Reverting to XFree 4.3 from Arch 0.6 fixes the problem.

Some details which might be of importancce: I'm using KDE and have a NVidia Gforce 2mx.

It seems to be a KDE bug indeed. Looking at bugs.kde.org, I found it was already reported as bug #78467. To summarize, it seems this bug only happen if you use the Meta key instead of the Alt key for KWin operations.
