Yes, it appears you're right. Gnome-settings-daemon is creating Xaw Command widget resources which override XRN's and cause it not to work properly. Why is it doing that? Is it really necessary for gnome-settings-daemon to install explicit button translations like that? How can I make it stop? Oh, wait, let me guess, the point is to allow the user to switch the handedness of the mouse, in which case gnome-settings-daemon mucks with the resources to cause the mouse buttons to swap. If that's correct, then the way it's doing that is breaking valid Xaw applications. Isn't there a way to do it in the xorg.conf file or something instead of by mucking with X resources? I realize that would require the user logging out and back in again, but there are other settings that do that, so it seems to me that would be preferable to breaking valid applications. And I'm still wondering how I can make it stop :-). jik _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
