Package: fvwm
Version: 1:2.5.16-2
Severity: normal

Fvwm causes a second synthetic ConfigureNotify event to be sent when starting
up an application, and probably also when popping up a window (I can't test
the latter with xev).  This (I believe) causes a flicker when popping up
windows in some applications (e.g., xdvi (Xaw) and acroread (gtk), the
print popups in both cases).  I do know that the print popup in xdvi receives
two sets of expose events when it first pops up instead of one.

To test this:  run xev.  With other window managers (e.g., twm or icewm)
there are two ConfigureNotify events when the window first appears, one
non-synthetic and the other synthetic.  With fvwm there is a third
ConfigureNotify event.

In addition, if you're running xev and you click in the xev window,
extra LeaveNotify and EnterNotify events appear, even though the mouse
stays in the window all the time.
