So it is solved for now, but I'd really like to know that when I don't have time to mess with this kind of stuff that it won't suddenly manifest itself again. You had mentioned that problems started occurring after you revived your laptop from a suspended state. The whole situation sounds like the Mozilla apps were frozen/captured in an inconsistent state during the suspension: maybe they were handling a (suspend?) signal and didn't have enough time to reach a consistent state before the processor became suspended.     It's believable,  but given that I completely restarted my system, and did eventually put my standard configuration files back into place I don't think it is the problem is that the configuration was corrupted across sessions.     My guess at the moment is that somewhere something is storing the size the application windows were when I had my laptop attached to the higher-resolution external monitor; because I'm having the same problem again today.  Furthermore, if I switched back to ion3, and then ran Thunderbird, and then switched back to wmii-3 the problem with Thunderbird went away.  At least for the main window.  I still have the problem with the composition windows, but I didn't open one when I started Thunderbird in ion3.     So my guess is that wmii-3 isn't being very good about mapping windows that are larger than the current display.  However if I check the geometry on this window, which is exhibiting the problem, it doesnt' sound too unreasonable: % wmiir read /client/3/name Compose: Re: [wmii] More newbie strangeness -- no window decorations?% % wmiir read /client/3/geom 2 17 1024 768%    % -- [Geoff Washburn|[EMAIL PROTECTED]|http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~geoffw/]
