Hi.

I have noticed a very strange problem today. When I open a new terminal on a screen I can type like always. Buf if I open another one (or third one) I cannot type there.

It is highlighted and has a courser in it, but nothing happens when i type.

I did not had this for years of using i3wm Btw, my system is an Arch Linux.

Before we enter some guessing game: Which terminal? Which i3? Happens also with other terminal emulator? You touched any of the config files recently?

Problem is solved after todays xterm update.

Sorry for the inconveniences.

Yeah, the previous xterm update which this one fixed was a major showstopper for many. Usually xterm releases updates once every 5 years (just joking ;) ), now we have 2 updates in less than a month...
