v13.1.2 unstable? (lost cursor and then ignore keystrokes)
Hi,
Since I updated to IJ 13.1.2 CE (on XUbuntu 13.04), I often experience a lack of responsiveness which eventually (after a few hours) makes the cursor disappear and few keystroke later, the editor ignores all keystrokes. What I do is basic editing and Shift-Ctrl-F9 to compile. If I exit IJ and restart it again, the issue disappears and will come back later.
Now go back to 13.1.1 where this issue didn't exist. Sorry for the vague report, if you need anything other info, please show me how to get that info.
Thanks

I recommend you open a bug report for the issue. It will get much quicker attention than a forum post.
Seeing the exact same thing on Mac (10.9.2)
I'm seeing the same symptoms in 13.1.2 Ultimate on Windows 7.
Hello,

Rohit,
Unfortunately, there is no information in this log.
Please follow these steps:
- close IDEA
- delete idea.log
- start IDEA
- provide new idea.log
The ide got - -again-- very slow and eventually loosing keystrokes or reacting to them very slowly.
I don't see anything worthwhile in the log, save for this excerpt,hope it helps the devs

John,
Please attach full idea.log. Information about your configuration is needed for investigation.
Here is my log. This happened on IU-135-908 on a fully patched Windows 7 system. IDEA froze and was unresponsive for several minutes. I killed IDEA and then attached the log.
Thanks in advance for any info.

Could you try to enable focus.fix.lost.cursor registry key with the last EAP? For this use the next steps http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11829434/local-history-configuration-in-intellij-idea-11/11829639#11829639 or press ctrl-shift-alt + / and select Registry. Find the key, enable it, close the window with the cross button on the window decoration, not close button. To check that the settings are saved reopen the regestry.
Hello Chris,
Please try to disable all third-party plugins and checkout your project again.
There is no focus.fix.lost.cursor entry

Are you using the last EAP ? http://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/IDEADEV/IDEA+13.1+EAP
