System name:		w20-575-10
Type and version:	SPARC/Classic 7.7K
Display type:		cgthree

What were you trying to do?
 	move windows, iconify windows

What's wrong:
	the top bar menu didn't come down, the iconify & maximize buttons
	didn't work, the background menus didn't come up, Alt-f# didn't
	produce said desired responses, in short it froze, not allowing
	window movement, resize, etc. 

What should have happened:
	see manpage

quitting and restarting mwm didn't help.  i'm running twm now.
	at the time i was running only matlab, 2 xterms, and
	desktop items (xclock, etc.)
i could create windows (new xterm, etc.) but once i placed
	them, they could not be moved. exitting out of them 
	was no problem.
