Running fvwm2 on Gentoo, no problems. Get a new Lenovo ThinkPad X13 (Ryzen). Insall SuSE Tumbleweed on it along fvwm.
Start up a machine running SuSE tumbleweed. Their build is fvwm 2.6.9. Copy over my ./.fvwm/config file. Everything works out of the box execpt for Button2 in fvwm. Windows w/in fvwm2 respond properly to all three buttons (e.g., hilite w/ B1 & paste with B2 works everywhere). fvwm2 seems to be mis-handling B2: I don't get the open windows list from B2 and if I use the fvwmPager the left & right clicks move me to a desktop but pressing B2 freezes the cursor, I cannot move any windows between desktops. Checking with xev, I get immediate button KeyPress/KeyRelase events from B1 & B3; the B2 seems to be buffered: I press it and nothing shows up in xev until I release B2 and then I get both the press and release events. I haven't been able to uncover any similar behavor described on the fvwm2 or SuSE forums and wandering through the bios hasn't shown me anything that wants to configure the buttons. Q: Has anyone seen this performace before? Q: Any solutions for it? Thanks - The button/mouse config entries in my ~/.fvwm/config. These work without any problem in a neighboring Gentoo system, the problems when I start using fwvm on SuSE. $ grep -v '^#' .fvwm/config | egrep -i '(button|mouse)'; + "Buttons" Module FvwmButtons Mouse 1 R A Menu "Utilities" Nop Mouse 2 R N Menu "Window Ops" Nop Mouse 3 R A WindowList Mouse 0 1 A Function "window_ops_func" Mouse 1 2 A Delete Mouse 0 4 A Maximize 100 100 Mouse 0 6 A Iconify Mouse 1 F A Function "Resize-or-Raise" Mouse 1 TS A Function "Move-or-Raise" Mouse 1 I A Function "Move-or-Iconify" Mouse 2 I A Iconify Mouse 2 FST A Function "window_ops_func" Mouse 3 TSIF A RaiseLower Mouse 3 W M RaiseLower *FvwmButtonsFore Black *FvwmButtonsBack #c0c0c0 *FvwmButtonsFont -adobe-helvetica-bold-r-normal--17-*-100-100-*-*-*-* *FvwmButtonsGeometry -0-0 *FvwmButtonsRows 1 *FvwmButtons(Title xterm -tn xterm , Icon rterm.xpm, \ *FvwmButtons(Title kill, Icon rbomb.xpm, Action Destroy) *FvwmButtons(2x1, Swallow(UseOld) "Desktop" 'FvwmPager 0 17') -- Steven Lembark Workhorse Computing lemb...@wrkhors.com +1 888 359 3508
