           Summary: Cursor loses focus when konsole returns to foreground
           Product: konsole
           Version: 1.6
          Platform: Debian testing
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konsole-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: shalev.tomer gmail com


Version:           1.6 (using KDE KDE 3.5.8)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
OS:                Linux

On a Windows machine, I started X server.
I opened shell and started Konsole.

Working on Konsole, I switch to other local application using Alt+Tab.
When I get back to Konsole, the menu bar has the focus, so I can't type, unless I bring the cursor back to focus using my mouse. This is very annoying!

Exceptions:

This bug does not occurs on a normal KDE session on the Linux machine itself.

When I bring Konsole back to foreground by pressing the Konsole application button on Windows's Taskbar, the cursor is focused and I can type.

It only happens when I use 'Alt-Tab' to bring it to foreground. Therefore, I believe this bug happends because Konsole traps the 'Alt-Tab' keystroke that brought it back to foreground, and treats the 'Alt' key which focuses the application menu bar.
