Hello,
  This problem is difficult to explain in words, but please try to follow.

If I'm using an application in gnome, say gnotepad, and for some reason or
the other, I click on the main menu and click on "run program". The run
program dialog box appears, but the active window remains as gnotepad. I'm
forced to click on the run program dialog box, before I can use it.

Similarly, for any program, when another program is called the active
window refuses to automatically switch, from the older window to the
recent (just called) windows. A mouse click is made neccessary. For a
person use to win95, this is a pain. Can this be solved?

thank you,
Rajeev
