Type and version: SPARC/5 8.3.26
Display type: cgsix
Shell: /bin/athena/tcsh
Window manager: mwm
What were you trying to do?
nothing special - try to learn how to use framemaker
What's wrong ?
mwm does not answer: no popup menus especially, impossible to use shortcuts to move, size, iconize windows. windows stuck where they are
no possibility of closing mwm (no popup menu) except by killing it from root
starting mwm again does not solve the problem
What should have happened:
mwm should behave normally
Please describe any relevant documentation references
starting another windowmanager (like fvwm95) is the only solution to get control of the windows, and then coming back to mwm does not solve the problem either (no popup menus again)
problem disappears after logout and relogin
