** Summary changed:

- x11vnc often doesn't handle twm placement of new windows
+ x11vnc often doesn't handle twm placement or resize of windows

** Description changed:

- When new windows are created without any location information requested,
- twm awaits a mouse click to place the window, and x11vnc often (but not
- always) ignores mouse input from the vnc client (xvnc4viewer
- 4.1.1+xorg4.3.0-37.3ubuntu2) until a click on the x11vnc host mouse is
- issued to place the new window.
+ When a new window is created without specifying it's location, or when
+ an existing window is resized, twm awaits mouse interaction to place or
+ resize the window.  Maybe about 4 out of 5 times this twm interaction
+ works as expected via the vnc client (i'm using xvnc4viewer
+ 4.1.1+xorg4.3.0-37.3ubuntu2), the other 20% x11vnc appears to ignore
+ input from the vnc client until the interaction is completed on the
+ x11vnc host.
