We like to have two terminal Windows created and opened during our boot. Been doing that since version 6.2. This occurred in RC2 -but- went away by a strange 'fix'. We have a Triple boot system and prior to this day, 11.4 was our main system. We booted up into it by accident and immediately exited and re-booted into 12.2 RC2. The xterms appeared -and- in the correct size -and- positions. We can not duplicate this 'fix' cause we replaced the 11.4 with this new 12.2. Now in 12.3 during Start-up we will see the xterms flash on the screen in the correct positions and sizes. This happens just before the march of the devices. First one being a Hard Disk -and- for the life of me can't remember what the others are!! Anyway, that is not important. What is .. is that when the Desktop finally appears... both xterm windows are plastered against the top of the screen. The sizes and "Horizontal" positions are correct -but- vertically they are not. We are using the supplied .xintrc template as a base to create our .xinitrc and only adding the following lines: (in the spot where it says 'Add your own lines here...') xterm -geometry 100x35+385+180 \ -fg Black -bg NavajoWhite -sb \ -rightbar \ -title NavajoWhite \ -fn 8x13 & xterm -geometry 100x35+165+390 \ -sb \ -rightbar \ -title For_coding \ -fn 8x13 & Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create the .xinitrc file with the values specifed. 2. Logout 3. Login Actual Results: Terminal windows plastered against the top of the screen. Expected Results: Terminal windows down about the middle of screen for one and a little lower for the other. We did not report this as a "bug" in version 12.2 -but- discussed it heavily in the forum with no positive results. The system, 12.2, got released before we finally decided that it was a bug... which appeared in the released version. So, we are reporting it in this 12.3 version. Hopefully, it will be fixed -or- an explanation as to why it will not work anymore. -- 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.
