Disables unredirect fullscreen windows in gnome-shell to workaround https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=767397

(bug, when clicking on full screen windows goes through to windows underneath).

This also happens to fix screen tearing in full-screen windows.

Install

From Gnome extensions website

extensions.gnome.org

From source

Download this extension from GitHub and extract it into the appropriate location:

ext=~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions; mkdir -p "$ext" && cd "$ext" && curl -LkSs https://api.github.com/repos/kazysmaster/gnome-shell-extension-disable-unredirect/tarball | tar -xvz --wildcards --strip 1 "kazysmaster-gnome-shell-extension-disable-unredirect-???????/[email protected]"

Then press ALT-F2 and enter r and press enter to restart gnome-shell.

Then in Firefox visit extensions.gnome.org and enable the extension under "Installed Extensions".

If you don't see the extension you might have to add your version of GNOME shell to this file (located at ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/[email protected]/metadata.json).
