The problem is still present in WindowMaker-0.80.2-4mdk

Seems to be a problem with GTK+ 2 applications under WindowMaker...

Recently I have heard of people having the same problem with a different window
manager (pekwm).   For reference...  http://pekwm.org/ml/devel  and the
particular post:

In WindowMaker I have several desktops.  I use a hot-key combination to change
from one desktop to another.  My WindowMaker is configured with Auto input
focus mode (focus follows mouse),   without automatic focus of new windows,
and with "Opaque move" turned on.  "open dialogs in same workspace as owners"
is also turned on.

In one of the desktops I have Mozilla.  I can switch to and from that desktop
without problems when there is only one mozilla window open.
However, if there are two or more (a second Mozilla window, or a pop-up), then
there is a problem when switching from another desktop to the desktop where
Mozilla is.  There is no problem switching from Mozillas desktop to another
desktop.   Moreover, the problem is only when switching manually with the
hot-key.   If switching by clicking on the desktop switcher of WindowMaker, the
problem does not appear.

The problem is the following:  The mozilla windows flicker when I switch into 
this desktop.  In order to reproduce this problem, the mouse must be located in
a certain area of the screen before switching to Mozilla desktop.

To reproduce:
1. Start a X session with WindowMaker (I do it from GDM, init 5)
2. Configure WindowMaker to have two desktops:  A  and  B
3. In (A), open Mozilla.  Use the hot-key to change to (B).
4. Now go back to (A).  Mozilla does not flicker.
5. Now open a second Mozilla window.  Use the hot-key to go to (B).
6. Use the hot-key to go back to (A).   The title bar of the Mozilla
   windows flickers, and most of the times the mozilla window does not
   get redrawn until a while later.

   Before doing step (6), you will be in desktop (B). At this point, make
   sure that the mouse is in the area where the second Mozilla window is
   in the other desktop.  In other words... once you switch into (A),
   the mouse ought to land on top of the second window.  Otherwise the 
   problem does not appear.

On occasions, Mozilla will even crash after flickering for a short while.

I have not found the same behaviour with other applications that have two
windows open at once.

I have not found this behaviour of Mozilla when I try the same experiment
under KDE.   Only on WindowMaker.

My original report is from over 2 months ago.  Please note that the problem was
occuring with the cooker at that time (i note the precise time and date in my
original report).   It was FULL cooker, with evolution-1.3.3-1mdk

Today (2003-08-24) i am using evolution-1.4.4-1mdk  and the bug I reported is no
longer present.

I propose closing this bug with "FIXED".

Hi, original poster here:
The bug I reported was the one that OOo fixed in 1.0.3.1
Between 1.0.2 and 1.0.3 they introduced a bug with printing, and they
immediately released 1.0.3.1 to fix it.  This happened a long time ago now... 
so the problem has been fixed for a while.   
See also the commend from Heinz Prommer above.

I am changing this bug to "FIXED", since the bug in OOo is FIXED.

OOo crashes with a "Segmentation fault (core dumped)" message 
when doing operations with the printer.

One way to reproduce with an empty document:
  1) Start "oowriter"
  2) Select File -> Printer Settings
  3) Select "PDF 1.4 Converter Press"
  4) Press "OK"  ==>   OOo crashes.

Another way to make it crash is to actually trying to print (File->Print menu):
  1) Start "oowriter"
  2) Select File -> Print
  3) Select "PDF 1.4 Converter Press" from list of printers
  4) Mark the "Print to File" box
  5) Enter a filename (test.pdf for instance)
  6) Click the "OK" button   ==>  OOo crashes.

My system is Cooker as of 2003-04-23, 01:30 GMT+1
It has cups-1.1.19-0.6mdk, cups-drivers-1.1-104mdk,

[Cooker] [Bug 2055] [XFree86] Mouse wheel not working in X

Bug still valid for me, with XFree86-4.3-5mdk.  The wheel sometimes works and
sometimes does not.  A logout of my session and log back in makes it work. 
(likewise, a logout of my session and log back in may stop it from working).  I
have tried several window managers, and it happens equally with all of them.

Just in case, I also have tried different X drivers (nvidia's own, and XFree's
"nv"), and it happens with both.

See my XFree config in a previous post in this bug.

[Cooker] [Bug 3293] [XFree86] X Server Crashes ML 9.2 RC 2

2003-03-24 Thread sorrodp

--- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2003-03-25 00:29 ---
I also get X crashes every once in a while.  I am using XFree86-4.3-5mdk
I have been seeing these crashes since 4.2.99.3, with every single version after
that until the current 4.3-5mdk.
I did not have these crashes with XFree 4.2 in my Mandrake 9.0 system.

I suspected of WindowMaker as the cause, but I have seen it happen with other
window managers too.

I wonder whether it may have to do with the NVidia driver I am using (Version:
1.0-4191), and I also had the crashes with Version 1.0-3123.

In my case I cannot associate the crash with any specific action.  Sometimes it
is while Mozilla 1.3 is loading a webpage.  Other times it is while working on a
OpenOffice.org documento.   The symptoms are always the same:  The whole screen
freezes.  I can only move the mouse.  Keyboard does not respond.  xmms continues
to play the song it was playing, but after that song is over, it does not
continue with the playlist.

Sometimes the crash seems to happen when I switch (with the keyboard) from one
desktop to another (I use several desktops in my window managers).

In order to recover, I have to log on remotely, and kill X with "killall -9 X".
It is the only way X will die and get restarted.   After this, the text consoles
are useless:  The screen buffer seems to get stuck with the last picture of the
X crash, and all can be seen is a distorted image.   The X server comes up
again, and I can login again and work without problems (until the next crash). 
The loging screen (I use GDM) does not come back up on tty v7, though.  It comes
up on v8.

These crashes are not too rare.  I am having about 1 crash every 3 days or so.

I could not find any more information in any logs in the system.

(my machine is an Athlon 1400, Nvidia NV11 Geforce2 MX/MX 400, Adaptec
AHA-2940U2/W, 512 MB ram).

I want to add that the flickering of windows happens with the Gimp, too, and
with several other Gnome apps.  If a desktop has more than one window of the
Gimp, or it has a Gnome app plus Mozilla, WindowMaker will try to give the focus
to all of them when you change into that dektop with a manual hot-key.

The title bars of all the windows flicker, with WindowMaker apparently unable to
decide which of the windows to give the focus to.

It may be a problem in general for any window opened under WindowMaker.  I have
noticied with Gnome apps and Mozilla so far.

  Severity: normal

AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


My locale is set to "en_US". I have a US keyboard, but I sometimes write 
in Spanish, so I have mapped a few keys to type accents and other spanish
characters.

I can type accented vowels in all applications (OpenOffice, gedit, xterm,
etc...)  but I cannot in Mozilla.   Since I upgraded to Mozilla 1.3alpha (and
now with beta), accented vowels cannot be typed in HTML forms.   I can copy text
with accents into a form, and it gets copied correctly, with the accents.  But I
when I type accented vowels into an HTML form in Mozilla, only the vowels shows
up, not the accent.

I have set up Mozilla to use different fonts in the HTML forms, and still,
accents do not show up with neither of them.

The same behaviour can be seen in the current Galeon (galeon-1.3.2-1mdk),
but all other applications do not have this problem (Konqueror, OpenOffice,
gedit, xterm, etc:  They all accept typed accented characters).

[Cooker] [Bug 2092] [WindowMaker] New: Mozilla does not get focus correctly in WindowMaker

   Product: WindowMaker
 Component: WindowMaker
   Summary: Mozilla does not get focus correctly in WindowMaker
   Version: 0.80.2-3mdk

In WindowMaker I have several desktops.  I use a hot-key combination to change
from one desktop to another.  My WindowMaker is configured with Auto input
focus mode (focus follows mouse),   without automatic focus of new windows,
and with "Opaque move" turned on.  "open dialogs in same workspace as owners"
is also turned on.

I believe this bug is in some way related to bug 2087, but it is not a duplicate.

The problem is with manual-switching from one desktop to a desktop where Mozilla
is.  If the mouse happened to be in a position such that when we go to the
desktop where Mozilla is, the mouse lands on top of Mozilla, then Mozilla does
not get the keyboard focus.

But, if in the first desktop we put the mouse in a position that will be outside
of the Mozilla window in the next desktop, then switch into the Mozilla desktop,
 and then move the mouse on top of Mozilla, then Mozilla does get the focus.

This behaviour did not occur with my previous system (it had a previous version
of XFree86, WindowMaker and Mozilla).   I am submitting this bug as a
WindowMaker bug, because I think it is a problem with WindowMaker.

To reproduce, note that the dektop switching must be done with a keyboard
hot-key, so that the mouse can stay at the same position while switching desktops.

Me again... I just tried to change the settings in WindowMaker so that
the focus does not follow the mouse, but instead you have to click on a window
to give it the focus.With this change, the problem I describe above does not
occur.

It seems as if when switching into the desktop where Mozilla is, WindowMaker
cannot decide which of the two Mozilla windows to give the focus to, even though
the mouse is clearly on top of one or the other, but not both.

hot-key.   If switching by clicking on the desktop switcher of WindowMaker, the
problem does not appear.

The problem is the following:  The mozilla windows flicker when I switch into 
this desktop.  In order to reproduce this problem, the mouse must be located in
a certain area of the screen before switching to Mozilla desktop.

To reproduce:
1. Start a X session with WindowMaker (I do it from GDM, init 5)
2. Configure WindowMaker to have two desktops:  A  and  B
3. In (A), open Mozilla.  Use the hot-key to change to (B).
4. Now go back to (A).  Mozilla does not flicker.
5. Now open a second Mozilla window.  Use the hot-key to go to (B).
6. Use the hot-key to go back to (A).   The title bar of the Mozilla
   windows flickers, and most of the times the mozilla window does not
   get redrawn until a while later.

   Before doing step (6), you will be in desktop (B). At this point, make
   sure that the mouse is in the area where the second Mozilla window is
   in the other desktop.  In other words... once you switch into (A),
   the mouse ought to land on top of the second window.  Otherwise the 
   problem does not appear.

On occasions, Mozilla will even crash after flickering for a short while.

I have not found the same behaviour with other applications that have two
windows open at once.

I have not found this behaviour of Mozilla when I try the same experiment
under KDE.   Only on WindowMaker.



[Cooker] [Bug 2087] [WindowMaker] New: Switching desktops in WindowMaker makes Mozilla flicker and crash

https://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2087

   Product: WindowMaker
 Component: WindowMaker
   Summary: Switching desktops in WindowMaker makes Mozilla flicker
and crash
   Version: 0.80.2-3mdk
  Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
  Severity: normal
  Priority: P2
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


In WindowMaker I have several desktops.  I use a hot-key combination to change
from one desktop to another.  My WindowMaker is configured with Auto input
focus mode (focus follows mouse),   without automatic focus of new windows,
and with "Opaque move" turned on.  "open dialogs in same workspace as owners"
is also turned on.

In one of the desktops I have Mozilla.  I can switch to and from that desktop
without problems when there is only one mozilla window open.
However, if there are two or more (a second Mozilla window, or a pop-up), then
there is a problem when switching from another desktop to the desktop where
Mozilla is.  There is no problem switching from Mozillas desktop to another
desktop.   Moreover, the problem is only when switching manually with the
hot-key.   If switching by clicking on the desktop switcher of WindowMaker, the
problem does not appear.

The problem is the following:  The mozilla windows flicker when I switch into 
this desktop.  In order to reproduce this problem, the mouse must be located in
a certain area of the screen before switching to Mozilla desktop.

To reproduce:
1. Start a X session with WindowMaker (I do it from GDM, init 5)
2. Configure WindowMaker to have two desktops:  A  and  B
3. In (A), open Mozilla.  Use the hot-key to change to (B).
4. Now go back to (A).  Mozilla does not flicker.
5. Now open a second Mozilla window.  Use the hot-key to go to (B).
6. Use the hot-key to go back to (A).   The title bar of the Mozilla
   windows flickers, and most of the times the mozilla window does not
   get redrawn until a while later.

   Before doing step (6), you will be in desktop (B). At this point, make
   sure that the mouse is in the area where the second Mozilla window is
   in the other desktop.  In other words... once you switch into (A),
   the mouse ought to land on top of the second window.  Otherwise the 
   problem does not appear.

On occasions, Mozilla will even crash after flickering for a short while.

windows open at once.
