[comp.windows.open-look] OpenWindows 2.0 and tvtwm

tim@cs.columbia.edu (Timothy Jones) (04/14/91)

Greetings,

Has anyone had luck running tvtwm with OW 2.0?  I can't seem to make the first
mouse button work in the panner window.  The second button works fine, so I
can move windows around in the virtual desktop, I just can't scroll the real
desktop within it.  Has anyone else experienced this?  

(Please reply via email, as I haven't had time to read much news lately.)

Thanks.

Well, I pulled out the tvtwm sources over the weekend and tried it under 
OW 2.0 and sure enough, the panner doesn't work properly.  I imagine it's
related to Button grab bugs in the server.  I've already reported one to Sun.
Anyway, I've sat on my butt long enough.  I'm going to try and pull together
what I've got and fix this OpenWindows thing and send out patch 5 sometime
in the next week or so.
