Package: fluxbox Version: 1.1.1-2 Severity: important Hi! Thanks for maintaining fluxbox in Debian!
I've just found out a bug which was not present in older versions of fluxbox: this is a regression, although I cannot remember which version did not suffer from this issue. Anyway the bug is present now, in version 1.1.1-2, and is really annoying. Put simply: if I start a full-screen game from fluxbox, and this game runs at a resolution which differs from the desktop one, then I find all windows moved up and left on all workspaces, as soon as I quit the game and go back to my fluxbox session! Steps to reproduce: # aptitude install freedoom Then start the game from a fluxbox session, with some open windows (anything is affected: terminal emulators, panels such as fbpanel, audio players, graphical web browsers, graphical MUAs, ...): $ doom Inside the game, select "Options", then "General", and set "Fullscreen video mode" to Yes. Quit and restart the game. $ doom Play for a while and then quit. In the terminal where you started the game, you should find several stdout messages, among which: I_InitGraphics: 640x480 I_UpdateVideoMode: 640x480 (fullscreen) V_InitMode: using 8 bit video mode I_SetRes: Using resolution 640x480 I_UpdateVideoMode: 0xe0000000, SDL buffer, direct access confirming that the game ran full-screen at a different resolution (unless your desktop runs at 640x480...). Look at all the windows. Their positions is wrong: moved up and left. At least, this is what happened to me: I had to reposition each and every window back to its right place! By hand! I hope this bug may be fixed soon. Please forward to upstream, if appropriate.
