Subject: fvwm-crystal: file selector of openoffice.org doesn't work under fvwm
Package: fvwm-crystal
Version: 3.0.5.dfsg-3
Severity: normal

*** Please type your report below this line ***

+ install fvwm-crystal
+ put fvwm into .xinitrc instead of enlightenment
+ startx
+ play around with different window decorations, colors and button
    settings that are in the top left menue
+ start a few programs, like mutt, iceweasel, xemacs
+ start openoffice writer from the Debian menue (apps, office,
    ooo.writer)
+ in openoffice, click on File-->Open
+ the file selector built into openoffice is supposed to appear to let
    you select the file you want to open, but nothing happens


You can also start openoffice.org from a terminal, but the built-in
file selector doesn't show up on the screen when you try to open a
file. You can specify the filename on the commandline, and openoffice
will load the file just fine.

The file selector has been working under enlightenment and other
window managers, so I guess this is something specific to
fvwm-crystal. It seems as if the file selector just doesn't become
visible, so maybe there's a problem with the configuration of fvwm?
