I do have to start them manually, but that is not the problem. I've discovered two things: 1. If I restart Ion (using the ion command 'session/restart'), it correctly resizes everything. 2. Some XEvents are generated when the VMWare window is resized. This might be the ticket. -- Bryan Richter _______________________________________________ vox-tech mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
