Description Zsolt Botykai 2005-01-11 10:24:07 CET
I'm a proud Gentoo user of the ~x86 type from the beginning and a big fan of
small WMs/DEs as XFce4.
So currently I just upgraded to rc3 and some of my system update included torsmo
(Which i'm in love too).
But now it seems to me that there is some problem: when I start torsmo it draws
on the screen, but then disappears. After moving some window to (or over) that
area of the desktop then move back torsmo reappears, then - as it updates -
disappears again :-(
Don't know if it's a torsmo or xfdesktop problem.
My things are:
[/home/bzs :: 10:56  :: 2]
[bzs@botykai-zsolt] $ torsmo -V
torsmo 0.18 compiled Jan  5 2005
[/home/bzs :: 10:56  :: 2]
[bzs@botykai-zsolt] $ xfdesktop -V
This is xfdesktop version 4.1.99.3 for Xfce 4.1.99.2
built with GTK+-2.4.14, linked with GTK+-2.4.14.

Just tried the solution suggested in this bug:
http://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=610
But this:
# torsmo -w `xprop -root XFCE_DESKTOP_WINDOW | sed 's/.*# \(.*\)/\1/g'`
doesn't help, torsmo still flashes, and disappears as it updates. So I'm really
sad now...



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. use xfdesktop 4.2 rc3 and torsmo 0.18
2. 
3. 




gtk+ 2.4.14

as i said before, this isn't fixable.  looks like a bug in torsmo.

OK, then i'll search for torsmo's bugzilla, thx for your fast answer.
