Hmmm, try the effect of running fvwm with 6 virtual screens (I usually run rooted) on top of apple's rootless-only X11. Yes, you get 6 virtual screens, all decorated with the same non-X stuff you are running!! Pretty wild, but not what I optimally want...unless there is a way to "unstick" the non-X stuff and populate it sensibly around the 6 desktops. It is trying to run xterm with /usr/local/bin/bash, though, so it fails, since bash in now /bin/bash (since 10.2?). I had a confusing version of this problem with fink installed stuff, due to my shell being set to /usr/local/bin/bash (had to fix it with netinfo manager once I finally figured it out). But I've no idea why it is doing this under Apple's X11...I can find no trace of it in my configuration. (I fixed it by editing the Applications menu to have xterm -e /bin/bash). Anybody else seen this or is it something I've messed up? OTOH, the cut'n'paste is not working as I hoped. I can highlight then middle-click to move stuff between X windows, but can't get apple-V to paste into Terminal. What works (mostly) with XDarwin in full-screen mode is to return to non-X and do apple-V (and vice versa). At least it works for many apps, and those it doesn't (e.g. Netscape) you can do an intermediate paste in an xterm window to get round the problem. I want highlight->middle-click to cut'n'paste and 6 virtual screens for _everything_ (and mouse in window to focus)! What chance of getting this as configuration options in Apple's stuff??? I can confirm that it doesn't in any way interfere with my already fink-installed xfree86/XDarwin stuff. I removed nothing, and installed without adding the X11 config (the default, as Kow pointed out). -- Viv ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com _______________________________________________ Fink-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users
