Hi there, I investigated further into the grey window oddity and found this thread:
http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6429775 (Actually the compiz WM has/had the same problem as dwm). I tried several things (supporting MWM_HINTS, supporting WM_STATE atom, and some other stuff), but it didn't fixed the issue yet (hence I didn't pushed those changes). At the URL I pointed to, a patch has been posted which seems like a good candidate to look into, because I believe it is a problem in XToolkit, or at least having the source of sun/awt/X11/XWM.java would really help me (but I had no success when googling for it). If anyone can send me a copy of this file, I'd be very happy. Knowing what XToolkit is doing in that class would make me know, what those Java apps expect from a WM... Any pointers? You can also mail it me privately. Regards, -- Anselm R. Garbe >< http://suckless.org/~arg/ >< GPG key: 0D73F361
