Subject: 23.2; buffer becomes inactive
--text follows this line--

I keep having this problem, I click out to another windows say firefox,
then when I click on emacs I am unable to typing anything into the
buffer. My work around for this is to click on the menu then click into
the buffer and everything seem to be ok. Basically emacs given the
impression it's hung.

Can you try the pretest of Emacs 23.3 from

ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/pretest/emacs-23.2.90.tar.gz

to see if it does any better?

There have been various issues with Emacs and recent gtk versions that
have been fixed. Since no more information was received, we cannot
really do anything, so I'm going to assume this was one of the ones
fixed in Emacs 23.3. If you still see it with Emacs 23.3, please reply
with full details and we can reopen this if needed.
