https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=223521 Summary: fvwm ugly Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: RC 1 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: X11 Applications AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: koenig@linux.de QAContact: sndirsch@novell.com fvwm2 is still used from a significant number of "suse users of the early days" (or e.g. with old hardware with low memory). in 10.2 fvwm looks ugly because - no nice background image anymore - FvwmButtons doesn't show the icons for the buttons - the height of the pager is much smaller, resulting in very small virtual screens in the desktop pager. xeyes are squashed and xclock is barely readable on 1280x1024 without resizing FvwmButtons vertically. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

- no nice background image anymore
to be more precise: the blue background is ok (though I more like landscape/animal images) BUT the background gets reset to X11 default root weave when restarting fvwm2 using the "Restart fvmw2" option in FvwmButton "Fvwm2". -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

sorry, but no idea. I just use fvwm2 with the good old suse config out of the box.
