LFS keeps jumping to windows [NOT A BUG]
hey,

I have a problem, lfs keeps jumping to windows (desktop) when ever some program has a msg (like nod32 updated, torrent download complete, icq msg, gmail notifier, rasmaster reconnecting).. it's not that it jumps to window mode (like shift + f4) it just minimizes itself and I loose control over the car.. when i click the icon in the taskbar it goes back. Now, most of you would say that the logical soulution would be to shutdown all programs.. well I tried that, and when there is no apparent program that would cause this problem.. it still jumps to windows.. this can happen like every 10 min or every 30 min but it is ANNOYING (last lap.. 1st position and then i hit a wall cause of the stupid "jump to windows")..

if anyone has any idea how to make LFS "always on top" please help.. my friend had a similar problem, and next time he formated his hard drive it went away.. but i'm not formating so plz keep spining some solutions.. thanx.

p.s. (it's not just in online gaming, it happens in single player, even if i'm just in the menu..)
Afaik only closing down all messenger software helps.
Sorry, but that's not a LFS bug. Close down your background programs or disable the update popups - it's the other programs you have to configure properly. You can try to run LFS in windowed mode with the same resolution as your normal screen. That way you have almost fullscreen, but the popups won't steal focus anymore, I guess.

Also, please only make one thread for the same problem.
Oh lol, didn't even notice it was in the bug section
