Hello everybody,

I found the cause of the problem but it is not really solved for the moment.

Since my system upgrade, something has changed around xrandr. I cannot see the 
dock because it is "painted"
outside of the physical screen.

Before the upgrade, xrandr output was (extract) :

Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1600 x 900, maximum 8192 x 8192

After the upgrade, xrandr output is :

Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 2624 x 900, maximum 32767 x 32767

But xrandr gives me another "screen" named "VGA-1". xrandr says that it is 
connected but this screen does not
exist!!

So I typed this command :

xrandr --output "VGA-1" --off

My screen blinked a bit but it seems that nothing has changed. VGA-1 is always 
here but the line "Screen 0"
has changed. It is now :

Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1600 x 900, maximum 32767 x 32767

Current value is now "1600 x 900" which is good.

But the dock is always invisible. Si I tried to restart Window Maker via the 
menu "Session".

Bingo!! The dock is visible at the right place!


But unfortunately, if I exit my Window Maker session and start it again, xrandr 
comes back with wrong values
and the dock is still invisible.

Any idea?
Thanks.
