This sounds like an x11 window-manager-related issue. You say KDE handles are lost...those window decorations and controls are in a frame controlled by the window-manager that surrounds the 'display' program window. I cannot reproduce the problem using fluxbox on 10.4. What window-manager is being run? Does downgrading the "imagemagick" package solve it? 'fink dumpinfo -fallversions imagemagick' might give some older choices that can be installed directly. For example, I see 6.4.1-1018, so I could 'fink install imagemagick-6.4.1-1018'. dan On Sat, May 22, 2010 at 11:45:54PM +0900, Tomoaki Okayama wrote: > Hi, > > We're sorry for your inconvenience for a long time.
