I was pleased to read about the possibility of running gtk2 apps without X11; one of the things that always bugs me about using the Gimp is having to click on a window to give it focus, then click again on a control in the window, for example the tools palette.
You can enable focus follow mouse for X11. This way, you won't have to click on a window to give it focus. defaults write com.apple.x11 wm_ffm -bool true
Has anyone managed to build gtk2 +quartz atop the new cairo 1.4.2 +quartz?
Yes, I fixed the problem you mentioned and I recompiled wireshark with gtk2 +quartz. The result is very far from being usable. You may have seen this warning if you installed with verbose output: *** The Quartz backend is still under active development and *** is included in this release only as a preview. It does not *** fully work yet and incompatible changes may yet be made *** to Quartz-backend specific API. This is very true, all you get is a preview but nothing really usable! I uninstalled gtk2 + quartz, installed the x11 version and recompiled wireshark so that I can use it. If your only concern is the focus follow mouse problem then I strongly advise to use the x11 preferences solution. Cheers, Cédric
