Hi Jakub,
Were you using vtwm*, or twm? If so, you're absolutely right, AutoCAD does
kill the window manager. Unfortunately, I don't think we're going to get
it fixed, as the version running on the Sun is not even supposed to
run under X windows - it's an Open Look version. I'm sorry, but I
don't think AutoDesk will listen to this one.
