Hello, Something strange is happening since a few days.
There has been some movement in the CVS lately so I did not want to report this too soon in case it was something that was momentarily broken or something like that. I have one FvwmButtons in the right side of the screen, when I start (or restart, it doesn't make a difference), the FvwmButtons instance loads ok, almost instantly, as it always did. The stuff that will go swallowed on it can also be seen lying around the left upper corner until it gets embedded into the panel. That is ok. But for some reason, even if the panel loads instantly, the pointer shows a busy state and the window decorations doesn't load until that goes away. That can be from 1 to 2 minutes. The cpu is totally iddle, and the memory doesn't show a significant hit during that time. You could say that the problem is elsewhere, not in the FvwmButtons. I could also say that, if it wasn't because I have tested this minimal configuration, and the same thing happens: ========================= # PANEL DestroyModuleConfig foo: * *FvwmTaskbar: Frame 1 *FvwmTaskbar: Colorset 6 *FvwmTaskbar: Rows 1 *FvwmTaskbar: Columns 1 *FvwmTaskbar: (1x1, Title foo) Module FvwmButtons -g 100x100-0+0 foo ========================= I name this ~/.fvwm/config, and restart fvwm. I can see foo in the right upper corner, but the cursor hangs for over a minute or even more some times. After that, it just goes to normal state, the window decos appear and I can click anywhere to get the nice fvwm default menu. No patches, no-thing, just current cvs, on amd64. ========================= # fvwm -version fvwm 2.5.22 (from cvs) compiled on Aug 8 2007 at 03:01:47 with support for: ReadLine, XPM, PNG, Shape, XShm, SM, XRender, XCursor, XFT, NLS ========================= The only strange things are amd64, gcc-4.2 and glibc-2.6. Has anyone else experienced this issue? It's getting a bit annoying the fact that I have to wait a couple of minutes to go from console to X. Regards. -- Jesús Guerrero <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
