Hi Kim

It does not happen with the Winter Theme, tho I don't use that theme,
I tried it just for testing purposes. I am using Absolute E on both my
systems. Plus, I haven't updated that theme (if there is an updated
version) in years. Maybe that is contributing to the situation.

I can get the iconified window back using the focus list if I enable
"Include iconified windows in focus list" -- but I don't use that, so
it never even occurred to me to try that route.  Again, I set it up for
testing purposes.

Here is, I hope, a backtrace from the Gentoo box (if I did it all
right) and yes, it's lame that I had to take a photo of the screen, but
I didn't know any better way to get this info recorded accurately.
Copy and pasting from a VT eludes me.

I hope this information is useful.  If there is more you need let me
know, I'll be happy to help.

Adrian
