I'm using virtual dimension (v0.94) and cygwin for quite some many years
now with (used to be) no issue (Windows 7 and Windows XP before). During
an upgrade of my machine I also installed the most current version of
cygwin and its x-server (1.12.2). Since this time an xterm (or any other
window) will show up on all my virtual dimension desktops as if it was
attributed to "All desktops"
Worse: Virtual Desktop does not show any xterm-icons, as if it does
never realize that these windows are there. This might be the reason why
the xterms are visible on all desktops - since the desktop manager fails
to see and handle them . But all of this used to work with older version
of cygwin - I verified by going back to an older backup for testing
(sorry cannot quickly check x-server version for this).
A websearch of this always leads me to this former "redraw window
issue". But that is not it. I would need to know (thanks for help) what
the cause for this could be. I would need to know some buzzwords where I
could start following and solving the problem. At this point I have no
idea where to start of from (where to start reading).
Regards,
Frank
