Redhat and fedora boxes have an application (written in some python
gui toolkit or other) named virt-manager (for managing Xen virtual
machines).
If I point my DISPLAY environment variable at a server where I'm
running fvwm (probably 2.5.18 is currently installed), then
I see a brief flash as a wi

Having gotten really curious about what was going on, I installed
xmon to watch the protocol messages as the windows appear and
disappear. Everything is relatively similar with no window manager
and with FVWM until a whole batch of expose events happen
in a row, then I see a PropertyNotify that ref
As my latest experiment with the disappearing virt-manager windows, I was
able to bring them up as long as I tell fvwm they should be unmanaged.
Once the window exists, I can edit the fvwm config file, remove the
style that says unmanaged, and restart fvwm and the windows get decorations
and opera

Yep, as near as I can tell, the window really does go away (though the
app doesn't exit). There is one window created by the virt-manager
app that acts "normal", all the other ones disappear when I try to
Is there a way to get WindowList to order the entries by
window creation time (or at least by window management time).
I'd like the list to stay in the same order all the time so I
can get used to which windows show up where instead of having
the order be semi-random like it is now (it is particula

There is a link to bug reporting on the fvwm home page
and when I followed it and reported a bug, my bug didn't show
up in the incoming list.
Is there some secret handshake I don't know about? Or is
the incoming list moderated and it takes a while for bugs
to show up?
I was trying to go ahead and

I've just been experimenting with running x2go, and when I tell
the client to run fullscreen, it apparently tells fvwm "don't
manage me", which works OK till I use the x2go hotkey Ctrl-Alt-M
to minimize the fullscreen client and get back to my normal
local desktop.
There doesn't appear to be any w

Some of the stupid apps have a setting you can change in the
app itself (I know google-chrome has one), other than that
I don't know.

nonsense request from apps can be overridden by FVWM (like ignor
