fail to run properly in fullscreen.
3. How to reproduce the bug, if known:

Window Maker.

11. backtrace if the bug made Window Maker crash. PLEASE SEND THE

strace/truss outputs are usually not usefull for crashes, so you can
skip it. The README file has instructions to make one.

I'm a software developer and am willing to assist in working on this
bug, but, of course, someone who is more familiar with the code should
have a much easier time finding it. ;)
Thank you,
