[comp.emacs] Emacs and X server locking up under OpenWindows

bergquis@nms.gdc.portal.com (Brett Bergquist) (02/13/91)

I've built GNU Emacs to run on SunOS 4.1.1 under X11 (OpenWindows).  It
works fine.  The problem that I am having is with its interaction with
the olwm window manager.  Whenever I grab the corner of the screen with
the middle mouse button, Emacs hangs the X11 server.  If I login from
another machine and kill Emacs, then everthing comes back to life.  If I grab
the corner using either the left or right mouse buttons, it works correctly.

BTW, I've just build Epoch 3.2 for this same environment, and the exact
same thing happens.

Any ideas on what is wrong will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
