219369 - when no windowmanager is running Mozilla refuses to accept keyboard input

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 76854

(SeaMonkey :: UI Design, defect)

Description

[stephan beal]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.1; Linux)
Build Identifier: Every tested version, 1.3x - 1.4

We're trying to use mozilla in a kiosk-like environment, with no windowmanager. There are two 
separate problems, however: 
a) when no WM is running mozilla refuses to allow keyboard input (at least into the address 
bar). 
b) mozilla ignores the X -geometry hint (regardless of whether a WM is running). 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run mozilla without a WM 
2. try to enter a url address into the address bar 
3. 
Actual Results:  
Nothing. :/ 

Expected Results:  
allowed me to enter data.
