Preliminary Injunction Against SuSE

Posted by Hemos on from the time-to-get-out-the-fish dept.

Random Walk writes "The German news site Heise Online reports that on behalf of an anonymous client, a lawyer has won a preliminary injunction (German only) against the Linux distributor SuSE. The injunction forbids the delivery of SuSE CDs as long as they contain some program name that apparently violates a registered trademark. No more details available, but SuSE seems to be in negotiations with the other party." Head over to the fish for translation.

    Indeed, the "Activation follows mouse (X-Mouse)" and "Autoraise when activating" options in Tweak UI are quite nice, but sadly some apps don't seem to play nice.

    Visio for example seems to raise itself when activated even if you have it disabled in Tweak UI.

    In Opera the auto-complete popup from the url bar seems to be a seperate window. So if you click in the url bar and happen to leave the mouse where the url popup will appear and start typing the popup appears and the Opera window deactivates and all your typing is for nothing.

    Still, it's better than nothing.
