After more than 5 years of Fvwm2 I switched to GNOME and Sawmill last week. I haven't noticed such a problem yet, but I'm using the plain Debian XF68_FBDev. Note that this is on PPC, not on m68k (don't dare to GNOME on slow m68k boxes :-) Gr{oetje,eeting}s, Geert -- Geert Uytterhoeven -- Linux/{m68k~Amiga,PPC~CHRP} -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker.
