Date: Fri, 05 Jul 1996 15:03:08 -0700 Organization: University of California, Davis Lines: 24 Message-ID: <31DD911C.442C@ucdavis.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: mujibur.engr.ucdavis.edu Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: Mozilla 2.01 (X11; I; HP-UX B.10.01 9000/712) I have noticed that when one logs out of a X-window session, if you try to switch over to one of the other consoles (using ATL-CTRL F1/F2 or F3) you can wipe the three of them out and only the X-window will remain. Anyone know why this happens? (It is only a minor annoyance, the easiest fix is to just wait until I see the login prompt again before trying to go to one of the other windows... and it only seems to happen on logout). BTW: I am running 2.1.0 stable and fvwm (with Xfree86 of course). -- - Mike ======================================================================== | | | _ | Michael D.
