Package: metacity Version: 1:2.20.0-1 Severity: normal Since the recent upgrade to Gnome 2.20, when I start my Gnome session, all of my xterms end up stacked on top of each other in the top left corner of each desktop they're supposed to be on. For some reason, the session information in the metacity session is not being correctly honored.
However, and this is the very weird thing, if after logging in I then kill metacity and let Gnome respawn it, the respawned metacity fixes the position of all of the windows correctly. I tried changing the order of metacity in the session to start after the xterms (currently metacity is order 20 and the xterms are all order 50), but that resulted in weird errors and didn't change anything, probably because I didn't know what I'm doing. Please let me know if you need more information. I'm *very* new to using Gnome and this is the first non-trivial problem that I've had with it, so I'm not quite sure what information you need. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-2-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages metacity depends on: ii libatk1.0-0 1.20.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.6.1-5 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.4.10-1 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libgconf2-4 2.20.0-1 GNOME configuration database syste ii libglib2.0-0 2.14.1-3 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.12.0-2 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libice6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libmetacity0 1:2.20.0-1 library of lightweight GTK2 based ii libpango1.0-0 1.18.2-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libsm6 2:1.0.3-1+b1 X11 Session Management library ii libstartup-notification0 0.9-1 library for program launch feedbac ii libx11-6 2:1.0.3-7 X11 client-side library ii libxcursor1 1:1.1.9-1 X cursor management library ii libxext6 1:1.0.3-2 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxinerama1 1:1.0.2-1 X11 Xinerama extension library ii libxrandr2 2:1.2.2-1 X11 RandR extension library ii libxrender1 1:0.9.4-1 X Rendering Extension client libra ii metacity-common 1:2.20.0-1 Shared files of lightweight GTK2 b metacity recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
