Sawfish/Ximian

[Joachim Backes <backes rhrk uni-kl de>]

Hi,

I recently installed Ximian Gnome, and now having some problems
with the sawfish WM. I use the old GNOME style within Ximian.

1. It is no more possible to raise a window by clicking
   into the WM-Sawfish frame; the window is raised only
   when moving it a little bit.

2. When configuring the Sawfish WM appearance by the gnome control center
   (Sawfish window manager -> Appearance), the first time the appearance
   can be configured, but when doing it for a second time, then the
   control center loops and must be killed.

3. Running "Run Configuration Tool for Sawfish" (initiated by the 
   GNOME control center), and editing there Sawfish->Appearance->RedMonk Theme,
   so that the Windows-2000 color map is selected, then the frame color is
   changed as desired, but when logging out from GNOME ans starting
   GNOME again, then Windows-2000 is still selected, but the frame color is
   reset to green (greenland).

An additional question: Is there a Ximian conversion tool which converts my old GNOME
desktop settings into the new GNOME style?

Regards



Joachim Backes
