I know this sounds a bit nuts, but I've only gotten the crashing with fvwm, 2.2.5; the version that OpenBSD ships with and has not been updated in 5 years. (I'm not blaming anyone, I realize the scale and resources of this project.) I noticed a more current verion is in ports, I'm going to look at that and their changelogs.
Meanwhile, could you please test with 2.2.5 fvwm? If someone can duplicate what I'm getting, then I'll see what I can do about tracking down atleast this bug. On 5/8/06, Jim Capozzoli <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
