Re: fvwm window shadows don't move...
Hello: ... On problem, though, is as follows: I'm using fvwm2 as a window manager under XFree86. When I click and hold the left mouse button on a window handle or title bar, and move the mouse the window stays in place, and only the crosshair moves, which makes it hard to determine where the window will actually land. I copied my old fvwm2rc and XF86Config files from my old slackware system, and on that setup, when I moved a window, the border of the window would move around with the crosshair, so I could get a better feel for where the window would land. I use fvwm2 on a (still bo) system at work. If the Xserver (s3virge) is running in 8 bpp the border moves with the cursor; in 16 bpp it doesn't. I haven't had the time to investigate it further. Is this a limitation of the server, or a configuration problem? -Chris -- || | Dr. Christopher D. Judd | | NYS Dept. of Health [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | Wadsworth Center - ESP | | P.O.
