I had to give up unclutter due to this bug. I still miss it terribly :-(.
It would be nice if someone figured out what the problem is.

Hi all; I'm using Gnome 2.8 on Debian Sarge, with FVWM 2.5.12 (packaged
by Debian) as my window manager. I'm also using fvwm-themes 0.7.0 and
fvwm-icons 2001.08.13, also from Debian packages. This same thing
happened when I was using 2.6, and maybe before that.
My problem is that when I log

At work we just migrated to Red Hat 8.0. The WM that comes with Gnome

setup (panel, etc.) because we have some company customizations,

I'm seeing a very bizarre behavior on my Debian GNU/Linux box (3.0).
I'm using the official packaged version of fvwm from unstable
(2.4.10-2). I had this same problem with the fvwm from testing (2.4.8)
so I upgraded, but upgrading didn't help.
I'm sure that this has not always behaved this way,
If you're setting it up from scratch I suggest you go with viewcvs
instead of cvsweb; the former is nicer (and, unless things have changed
recently, much better supported):
