I'm seeing the same problem here (running managed under kwm).
The following programs now have their main windows appear behind
everything else:
HyperTerminal v595160, Netscape v4.61, UltraEdit v7.10b, Winamp v2.64,
and Windows Media Player v6.4.07.1112. The problem seems to be the
following patch:

Top level windows with 0 width or height are created with a size of 1x1
in
the X11 driver. I've added some code to make sure those windows are
never
mapped while the size <= 0.
----------------------------
Specifically, the portion:
@@ -635,11 +677,13 @@
stack[1] = X11DRV_WND_FindDesktopXWindow( winposPtr );
/* for stupid window managers (i.e. all of them) */
-
- TSXRestackWindows(display, stack, 2);
- changeMask &= ~CWStackMode;
-
- WIN_ReleaseWndPtr(insertPtr);
+
+ if (!X11DRV_WND_IsZeroSizeWnd(insertPtr))
+ {
+ TSXRestackWindows(display, stack, 2);
+ changeMask &= ~CWStackMode;
+ }
+ WIN_ReleaseWndPtr(insertPtr);
}
}
if (changeMask && X11DRV_WND_GetXWindow(winposPtr))
Moving the line
changeMask &= ~CWStackMode;
back outside of the if statement restores the previous behavior for all
of the above apps. I doubt that this is the correct fix though. Would
the author or someone knowledgeable in the ways of X care to comment?
