2000-03-14 Thread Grojer Juergen

thanx, but i've found the problem, i've set the desktop to 3x2 but the pager
left at 2x2 in .fvwm2rc
the pager still works for all 6 desktops, but i think this leads some other
fvwm2 functions to hang.

best regards
juergen

Yeah, that used to happen to me with fvwm sometimes, too.

I now run KDE and haven't had the problem . . . 

But when I ran into it I'd just restart fvwm from the popup menu.
No biggee; just takes a second or two, and doesn't kill any of  you
windows or anything.

 I don't know much about fvwm, but why do you think, that the behaviour you
 described has something to do with _VMWARE_ ?

I think he's associated the abbreviation for the window manager.

Juergen, FVWM2 is a window manager that controls your display in a particular
style.

VMware is entirely different; it's software that lets you install Windows and
run it =as=a=window=in=Linux=.  In other words, Linux as the base OS and
Windows in a Linux window so you can run those pesky Windows apps in Linux!
Works good, but a bit slow.

Be advised, FVWM  -2 are rather old and very few people run them, so you will
have trouble with support.  Recommend KDE.  (Gnome still too buggy)
