X11R7.4 multiwindow ignoring title bars for geometry
I just updated to the X11R7.4 release. I start the X server in multiwindow mode using /bin/startxwin.sh. If I then type xterm -geometry +0+0 into the visible XTerm, the new XTerm shows up in the top-left of the screen, but the title bar is off the top of the screen and not visible. This makes it impossible to move the window. I have to use +5+30 to get it where I want. This isn't a problem when I specify the geometry, but does cause problems when I run other applications that open their own windows. Most recently, I had this problem with wireshark running from a Debian Etch server. This is a regression from the previous X11 release. -- David Rothenberger [EMAIL PROTECTED] Pohl's law: Nothing is so good that somebody, somewhere, will not hate it. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/

A number of enhancements to multiwindow are still under development, and a patch for this issue is already in line for the next release of xorg-server.
