FVWM: x2go fullscreen and fvwm?

2015-07-31 Thread Tom Horsley
I've just been experimenting with running x2go, and when I tell the client to run fullscreen, it apparently tells fvwm don't manage me, which works OK till I use the x2go hotkey Ctrl-Alt-M to minimize the fullscreen client and get back to my normal local desktop. There doesn't appear to be any

There is a link to bug reporting on the fvwm home page and when I followed it and reported a bug, my bug didn't show up in the incoming list. Is there some secret handshake I don't know about? Or is the incoming list moderated and it takes a while for bugs to show up? I was trying to go ahead

Is there a way to get WindowList to order the entries by window creation time (or at least by window management time). I'd like the list to stay in the same order all the time so I can get used to which windows show up where instead of having the order be semi-random like it is now (it is

As my latest experiment with the disappearing virt-manager windows, I was able to bring them up as long as I tell fvwm they should be unmanaged. Once the window exists, I can edit the fvwm config file, remove the style that says unmanaged, and restart fvwm and the windows get decorations and

Have You tried to move the window back on screen using the All cammand from FvwmConsole? Yep, as near as I can tell, the window really does go away (though the app doesn't exit). There is one window created by the virt-manager app that acts normal, all the other ones disappear when I try to

Redhat and fedora boxes have an application (written in some python gui toolkit or other) named virt-manager (for managing Xen virtual machines). If I point my DISPLAY environment variable at a server where I'm running fvwm (probably 2.5.18 is currently installed), then I see a brief flash as a
