Re: FVWM: FVWM 2.5.25 and Skype: Profile Window won't show

That particular diff is related to a fix for gtk-windows disappearing when using some new GTK praxis. (See http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg01359.html) It's hard to say exactly what Skype does since it's closed source. I'll try to debug it some to see if I'm able to reproduce the issue using bare X-calls, and see if those calls are right or not. I still belive that the above diff is right in accordance with the ICCCM2 specification, but without knoing what Skype does it's hard to say if it is fvwm or Skype that breaks the rules. After som preliminary debuging, it seems as if Skype does a XWithdrawWindow() call, and then waits for some event to happen before it maps the window again. I'm not sure what it wat's for, but obviously the dif you posted prevents that event from being sent, since Skype doesn't try to remap the window. I'll do some more debugging trying with the aim to find out which event Skype waits for, and once I know that I should be able to say if it should be able to expect that event or not based on the sequence of oprations that has been going on. Sorry, if I do bother you. Just wanted to check back, if you had any success in this issue. If needed maybe I can get some contact with skype, to help you solve this issue. Philipp
FVWM: FvwmPager and Xinerama mode
Hi folks, Maybe a stupid question (hopefully not): On a Xinerama display FvwmPager just shows the global screens. AFAICS it does not recognize (or care about) Xinerama at all. Thats fine with me. But using *FvwmPagerGeometry x90-0-0 the pager window is put into the bottom right corner of the top left screen instead of the global screen. This is different to other XWindow applications. "xterm -geometry -0-0" works as expected on the global screen. How can I tell FvwmPager to be put on the bottom right corner of the global display (independent of the screen size and the number of screens, of course)? Regards Harri
Re: FVWM: FvwmPager and Xinerama mode
It's been a while since I used Xinerma mode with FVWM. (My new laptop (or ubuntu) doesn't properly manage it). I believe I just put two Pagers on screen (one on each screen) using a seperate pager specification.

Re: FVWM: FvwmPager and Xinerama mode
I have a big pager across the top of my screen(s) and a little pager in the upper right corner. The big pager gets auto-hidden, that's why it's slightly off the screen. I use the DesktopScale parameter to set the size. LEFT_SCREEN and RIGHT_SCREEN are host-dependent variables. *DesktopPager: Geometry [EMAIL PROTECTED] *DesktopMiniPager: Geometry [EMAIL PROTECTED] On 10/29/08, Hans Voss <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > It's been a while since I used Xinerma mode with FVWM.
