Description Garron Moore 2002-06-09 19:26:29 UTC

When using Gnome 2, I cant move my gkrellm window. It is just stuck wherever it 
opens. It worked fine in gnome 1.4 and works fine in fluxbox.

This sounds like a metacity bug/problem. 
What metacity version are you using ?

- stroke

try moving it with Alt+click-drag (works for me in .610 )

Comment 3 John Mylchreest 2002-07-16 06:15:00 UTC

Do you by any chance have the GNOME plugin installed an active?
the one that takes it out of the gnome tasklist and such.
i believe there is a bug for gnome2 with that, which i want to look at over the 
next few days.

Comment 4 Charles K. Lee II 2002-09-09 23:07:29 UTC

Another possible cause for this behavior is running gkrellm with the -w switch.
 Running it withdrawn is desirable within fluxbox, but causes you not be able to
move the window within Gnome2.

This seems to work now
