I tried this patch but no success. Actually this is what I expected since the arguments to XGetWindowProperty() are no pointers, i.e. they are simply passed by value. In our case we've got int variables which are assigned to long variables when the function is called, there's no harm in this at all. > Is your machine 64-bit, btw? :-) No, it's 32-bit. To me the behaviour seems to be caused by buggy apps. Thus my original patch may be a sensible way to deal with this anyway. Better see it crash when looking for the source of the problem but in the end better have a stable WM :) Cheers, M'bert -- ----------- / http://herbert.the-little-red-haired-girl.org / ------------- =+= Amongst our weaponry are such diverse elements as: fear, surprise, ruthless efficiency, an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope, and nice red uniforms - Oh damn! -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [email protected].
