I found your email address at the gkrellm site and took the liberty of mailing you this snip of a thread on the fvwm mailing list. I also post this to the mailing list, because if you have technical questions, I probably won't be able to answer :-) Regards, -- Jules Alberts ---------------------------------------------------------------------- On Wed, 2003-07-23 at 06:31, Dominik Vogt wrote: > On Wed, Jul 23, 2003 at 11:55:22AM +0200, Jules Alberts wrote: > > Op 23 Jul 2003 (10:59), schreef Dominik Vogt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > <snip> > > > > And it does, thanks!

Strange... > > Bye > > Dominik ^_^ ^_^ Since I could reproduce this, I decided to track it down... fvwm is indeed trying to grab the pointer and failing [XBell() at functions.c:992 in execute_complex_function], however, it's not because of anything Jules has done... In ConfigFvwmDefaults, an EWMHActivateWindowFunc function is defined--whenever gkrellm is clicked on to be moved (I think GTK2 is what's actually causing this to happen), EWMHActivateWindowFunc is called, causing this problem. -- Ben Winslow <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL: http://www.fvwm.org/>.
