This is a problem with the default window manger (twm) that comes with
Xdarwin.  You'll need to install a different window manager and set your
system up to run it.  Check out

http://fink.sourceforge.net/doc/x11/index.php

for more information.  'fink list | grep anager' will give you a list of
window managers you can install (as well as some other tools with the name
manager in the description--you want packages that say 'window manager').

Another good option for a window manager is OroborOSX.  It basically works
like a standard double-clickable Mac application, runs rootless so that you
have easy access to other applications, and also has controls in the Mac
menu bar.  Check out http://wrench.et.ic.ac.uk:80/adrian/software/oroborosx/
