[ctwm] part of screen not visible

I am experimenting with an older laptop at work and its docking station. With Fedora 17 and dual-monitors (though the docking station), it seems that the left-most edge of the left monitor is actually at x-coordinate +1024. Therefore, all the windows I have defined to be at positions +X where X <

I recently upgraded my kernel and a few other packages on my system. Now when I start up vmware-player, I don't get any fonts -- just little blocks. I noticed the same thing when I start realplayer. Both seem to work fine, but it's rather hard to work with them when I cannot see the fonts 1n the

This past weekend I installed qemu to give it a try. It seemed to work okay until it started up an X11 session inside the emulator window. I had to click on the window to get it to take input from the mouse and keyboard. However, I cannot get that window to release the focus. According to the d

I haven't changed my ctwmrc much for a LONG time. I am on a Gentoo system running 3.6 and I'm ready to unmask 3.7. I have a question that perhaps someone here can clarify... On my "older" apps, like xterm, xcalendar, etc, I can select Occupy from my menu (bound to f.occupy) and click on the wind

In checking out the newly-moved site, I looked at the themes. I noticed that all of them use the iconic workspace manager. My setup uses a more tabular WM (probably because I started with a .twmrc file rather than a "theme" :), and while that may be passe, there might be some interested in my con
