I have an app in which a modal dialog is run that contains a button that will show a wx.Frame object. The user interacts with the frame, and then closes it when done. This works great on OS X and Windows, but under Gtk the frame contents are 'dead'. I can move and resize the frame itself, but neither its controls nor its menu respond to mouse/keyboard events. The calling dialog is still responsive, though.
Is this a limitation in the way modal dialogs are implemented in Gtk, or is there a workaround for this?

Check this thread on wx-dev - it could be the same problem.
