While we are thinking about minimalist window managers are there any
subscribers to this list using aewm on debian unstable? I used to use
it untill I got this computer (400MHz Pentium II) and can no longer do
so.
Middle clicking on the root window should run aemenu --switch bringing
up a list of hidden windows. It works correctly on an old P166 I have
but on this box only about 1 in 20 clicks seems to register. See bug
# 193966:aewm "aewm does not respond to mouse clicks in the root window"
The middle button is recognised by other apps. for example I can select
text with the left button and paste by middle clicking.
I am interested in finding out if this behaviour is limited to just this
computer or is it more widespread so if anyone is using or has tried
aewm recently I would like to hear from you.
cheers,
Ken
