I completely agree with you, the behaviour is NOT intuitive at all. This wasted an hour of my life as well. I completely agree with you, the behaviour is NOT intuitive at all.

Try opening firefox in both screens. Try opening from email with and w/o firefox open on the opposite screen. Results seem to vary with distro which is also interesting. Not sure if it's related to your compromised sanity, but similar weirdness thats had me pulling my hair out at times (wait I have a shaved head).

This function call is properly protected in a multi-threaded environment. A little spelunking reveals that “InterlockedIncrement” is an atomic operation defined in a Microsoft API.

It seems silly and a broken concept of inheritance, but them's the facts. One solution is to include the base template's namespace. That might help you some.

What about tracking it down from the other direction? On Linux, the hardware capture device is configured in the xml-formatted job file as <VideoDeviceID type="string">/dev/video</VideoDeviceID> Maybe start tracing that string through the code and see where it gets you? Wow, that’s nuts.
