Re: FVWM: Mouse 1 R A Menu not working

Thanks Charlie and Jaimos

  Using D instead of R as context in
Mouse 1 R   A  ..
produces the same behavior. Apparently it is the context Root what it is 
not being

recognized
If I try to set a key as
Key F4 R A .
it ignores the key, using other contexts it works. But ... when I run 
xwininfo -children

and I point to the Root window I get

  Root window id: 0x195 (the root window) (has no name)
  Parent window id: 0x0 (none)

Meaning that it is the root window. Puzzling

I had similar problems with Nouveau.
Installing the Nvidia driver cured the problem.

FVWM: Mouse 1 R A Menu not working

2014-10-06 Thread Hernan G Solari 

Hello
  I have been using fvwm for eons, since it replaced twm and mwm. I 
never felt the need

to change the original behaviour of the mouse buttons.
   fvwm is running over X, I mean I use NO desktop (gnome, KDE, ...) 
and is launched by gdm3


  I have now upgraded Debian from squeeze to wheezy and fvwm menus are 
not responding ...
(fvwm version  2.5.30 but after downloading, compiling and testing fvwm 
2.6.5 I made no

improvement)

config file reads
# ButtonContext Modifi  Function
#if mouse is in root window...
Mouse 1 R   A   Menu Utilities Nop
Mouse 2 R   A   Menu Window-Ops Nop
Mouse 3 R   A   WindowList

I have checked that things like
Mouse 1 x   A   Menu Utilities Nop
with x in {A,W} work as expected.
As a temporary fix I enable Key F3 to F5 for the menus and
have pointed ctl Mouse to the menus
Mouse iA   C   Menu .

¿Is this a bug? ¿Is there a fix?

thanks
   Hernan
