It is a ctwm compiled by myself. First I used my old binary, but nothing changed when I recompiled with X11R7 libraries. Using the NetBSD package should not be much different (except that it is not newer than 3.8a) because I made it myself :-) With X.org I even use the same XF86Config file as before (I changed some path names from /usr/X11R6 to /usr/X11R7 but that was all). At some point in the past, I must have specified a non-standard location for it, and apparently that is still used; but I forgot where exactly I specified that :-) Maybe I should try to have X.org generate its own config file and see if it makes a difference. Unfortunately I don't have much time to debug in the next 2 weeks, but I know I can make ctwm log lots of event-related debug info, so it should be possible to find out if it actually receives the Expose events or not. (I did find out in the past that it is better to display those messages on another display than the one that ctwm is managing!) -Olaf. -- ___ Olaf 'Rhialto' Seibert -- You author it, and I'll reader it. \X/ rhialto/at/xs4all.nl -- Cetero censeo "authored" delendum esse.
