Not sure if this is the correct forum but here goes.


I have access to a RHEL5 system running as a guest under zVM5.3



As I am not very familiar with the Linux command set I thought I would take
the easy way out and use the GUI approach.



I putty to the RHEL system and have started a VNCSERVER session.   When I
point my VNC Viewer at this instance from a Windows box I get a crude
desktop with an Xterm window.   Into that Xterm I issue gnome-session.



That's when the fun starts - every window that opens starts as a 'skeleton
like grid' attached to the mouse pointer - wherever I left-click the real
window is placed.  This behavior is annoying and I can't figure out how to
get it to behave as one would expect.   Much Googling hasn't enlightened me
either.



Can anyone help me out here ??
