How, precisely, does it "not work"? Could it be that M-x other-frame (which has the binding C-x 5 o, by the way) does work, but that KDE instantly restores the focus to the frame where the mouse is? Does it still fail to work when the mouse isn't over any frame? > I have experimented with the variable focus-follows-mouse set to 't' or > 'nil' but I don't see any difference. > Other than that, the "Focus Follows Mouse" KDE behavior works > properly, so I thought it might be an emacs problem.
