From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Man, I'm having such a bad day for trying to click on "dead space" on a window where there is none. Sounds like tbird drove off the same cliff.

Hrm.. I just changed (in KDE) "right click" in inactive windows to be "Activate and Raise" rather than "Activate, raise and pass click". I never liked this behavior for left-click before, but maybe having it as a right-click will help.
