Has anyone experienced an issue where the client locks up when you switch away from it?

I'm using i3wm, and about 10% of the time, when I switch to a different desktop I find that I can't switch back to the eve client - it just stops rendering.

If I kill the eve client and log back in, I can carry on trading or whatever, so its not a complete show stopper but it is annoying.

If anyone's experienced this symptom before, have they figured out any work-arounds?

Use Wine desktop and you wont have the issue anymore. Its a bug in Wine i think that has been dragged a while.
