I don't use that setup actually, I prefer xinerama. I only tried it
out once to see what it was like. I saved the config in case I ever
wanted to do it again. But now that you mention it, I do remember
having focus problems. But not quite like you described. IIRC, I had
to click on the title bar of the window for it to gain focus. But
once I did that, it would stay focused. But I couldn't click just
anywhere inside the window like usual. I use click to focus rules.
If you use sloppy or focus follow mouse, that might be the reason for
the flickering? Just a thought.
