Sounds like it may be a duplicate of bug 337868.  Can you obtain a stack trace with debugging symbols?
Comment 2 huzheng 2006-04-10 15:54:14 UTC 
Can you tell me how to get the stack trace by steps? Do I need to compile metacity from source?
Comment 3 Elijah Newren 2006-04-10 16:11:45 UTC 
See bug 337868 comment 4; you shouldn't need to compile metacity from source unless your distribution doesn't provide any debuginfo packages.
Comment 4 huzheng 2006-04-11 01:25:40 UTC 
OK, I get it:

Had to download the Fedora SRPM to find this; it's due to this line of the metacity-2.13.144-bling.patch:
	g_print ("focusing something other than %lx\n", window->frame->xwindow);
Because it erroneously assumes window->frame isn't NULL.  This bug was also temporarily in CVS HEAD but appears to have been removed just a few revisions after it was put in.

I'll ping Søren and Ray so one of them can fix/update the Fedora patch and package if they haven't done so already.

Hi huzheng,

I've committed Elijah's fix for this problem in FC5 updates-testing, and will be pushing it out to FC5 updates soon after.
