Nice. Classpath has it now too, so we can generally test it too directly. > I would like to rely on the metacity window manager, since it > handles inset sizing correctly. Depending on a specific window manager is stupid. It just makes the hurdles for users of mauve higher. If we have problems with a specific window manager and its his fault and not ours we should report bugs. If you refer to the wrong insets bug I see here, I made sure its a jamvm/classpath bug, not a window manager bug. It only occurs in jamvm/classpath and not in a 100% merged java-gui-branch. I will try to investigate it more, no matter if I run kwin, windowmaker or GNOME/metacity. Michael -- Homepage: http://www.worldforge.org/
