Yes and yes, but I tried turning off focus follows mouse and that didn't
solve either problem.

I had assumed that the window manager was part and parcel of the GNOME
desktop and there was only one.  Are there in fact other window managers
besides metacity included in the GNOME distribution, and if so, what
distinguishes them from each other (other than, perhaps, that some of
them may not cause the problems I'm experiencing with XRN)?

P.S. Thank you for your quick response, and I'm sorry mine was delayed.
