I'm trying to set up RedHat 8.0 and ran into some difficulties.
1. I can delete any icon from the desktop except for two. How do I get
rid of trash and home?
2. Although DEL is mapped to "remove," the window manager catches it
and instead pops up a window menu window. How do I kill that
behavior and get the DEL key to delete?
3. Window stacking is tied to focus, so that the window on top of the
stack is the focused window. I want to revert to my usual
preference which is for stacking to be in order of window creation,
so that what's on top is the newest window.
4. I want to configure xterm, but ~/.Xdefaults no longer understands
statements such as
XTerm*Font: 7x13bold
xterm -geometry 20x5-0-0 &
Where now does one now define things like fn, bg, fg, etc.?
Ideally I'd like to customize an xterm by which user invoked
it. For example, if I issue the su - user command in an xterm, the
xterm would use user's xterm configuraiton. As things now stand, I
can achieve this only by creating a second xterm icon, and
configure its xterm command to pass its own set of options to the
xterm command.
