Suse 9.3, fvwm 2.5.10 and also in 2.5.18, firefox 1.5.0.6 I have 5 Desks set up, running firefox on one of them:
Style "Firefox-bin" StartsOnDesk 2, SkipMapping This works fine: the desktop is not switched when firefox starts up. However, since a recent upgrade of firefox, whenever I open a new tab (not: window!) in firefox via "firefox -remote openURL(...)", the desktop switches to #2 where firefox runs. This is not what I want, the desktop should stay where it is. In earlier versions of firefox, this used to work: the desktop was not switched. How can I see what makes fvwm2 think it should switch the desktop now? Is there some verbose/debug mode availbale? firefox does *not* open a new window (even in that case it should not switch desks with the SkipMapping above in place)... When using e.g. the KDE window manager, the firefox icon in the taskbar starts blinking when I open the new tab, but the desktop is not switched. Thanks R'
