I've been experiencing this bug intermittently with the Evo builds in ubuntu
hoary, breezy and in SUSE 10--I experienced it today, in fact.  I have to
restart X to regain control...
Comment 5 Jason Brooks 2005-10-17 18:30:59 UTC
So, to be more specific, I'm currently experiencing the bug in Evolution 2.4.0
(although I had it in the version that shipped with GNOME 2.10 as well) and I
get it when I drag messages from my IMAP inbox to one of my IMAP folders on the
same server.

The cursor changes to the drag cursor, but rather than dropping whatever I've
chosen to drag, I'm stuck in drag mode and can't do anything with my cursor but
move it around.

I can't alt-tab away from Evo, either.  As I mentioned above, I have to
ctrl-alt-backspace to regain control.
Comment 6 Jason Brooks 2005-10-17 18:32:42 UTC
Oh, I can also switch to another terminal and kill evo that way, too.
