[rox-users] trouble: Ubuntu Karmic, fvwm and Rox Pinboard

[Dieter M. <die...@ew...>]

Hi all,

did anyone experience similar problems ?

Since I updated to Ubuntu Karmic, from Jaunty, my local copy
(non-packaged) of the ROX-Filer is messed up.
I start the rox filer as pinboard, handing mouse-clicks on the
background through to fvwm.

Problem:
when I start up either Rox or fvwm, all is OK: mouseklicks on icons or
filer windows get to ROX-Filer.
As soon as I click on the background for an fvwm menu, fvwm gets all
mouseclicks, even those intended for the filer.

I already recompiled rox-filer with the actual libraries, but nothing
changed (those are dynamically loaded anyway)
I also tried the previous version of fvwm (2.5.26), but
On another host, with jaunty still active and fvwm 2.5.26, and identical
rox setup all is still OK.

I use it together with ROX-Session, and fvwm as window manager for
several years now, all programs and libraries are from the distribution.

- - rox-filer 2.10 (locally compiled - I did some changes to the display)
- - fvwm 2.5.28 (packaged)
- - ROX-Session 0.40

N.B. Apparently eclipse experiences similar problems with Karmic, their
problem is related to gtk.
The current version on Karmic is  gtk-1.2.10
