In addition to the UrgencyFunc function, what have you defined for the
EWMHActivateWindowFunc, if anything?

I haven't defined anything for that.

(I have a comment in my config about seeing EWMHActivateWindowFunc only
being applied to new windows and not windows being de-iconified; it has
been a while since I played with it, so that might be inaccurate.)

I've had exactly the same problem with Pidgin. I have the following:

Style *   SloppyFocus, !FPFocusByProgram

DestroyFunc UrgencyFunc
AddToFunc UrgencyFunc
 + I Iconify off
 + I Raise

I don't recall if this solves the focus grabbing upon de-iconification, 
or if I just iconify chat windows infrequently enough that it's less of 
a bother.


It's from: http://fvwmwiki.xteddy.org/Tips/FocusStealing/

With this, there are still a few problems with focus grabbing, though 
they are limited to the password dialogs IIRC.


HTH,
Reid
