    Try now. I am almost, but not completely sure that it has not been fixed.

      Oh, how can I recompile just the needet part?

      I tryed to figure out little bit more, maybee those information can help: - If I run gLiveSupport on genome, resizing works fine. - If I run it on debian system (XF-86), but without any windows manager, it crashes. On the other hand, moving the windows pressing mouse on whithe background and move, this works. - If the display is on windows, using the windows manager coming with the xserver, it crashes. - If display is on windows and running gnome-wm on debian, it is fine. - If display is on windows and running mwm on windows, it crashes.

        to recompile, go to products/gLiveSupport, and say: 

        make clean all

        • status changed from new to assigned
        • owner changed from ferenc to fgerlits

        Yes, the gtk+ Gdk::Window::begin_move_drag() function does two different things depending on whether the wm "supports the net wm moveresize hint", whatever that means. The crash occurs in the branch where it doesn't.

        At the moment, resizing

        • works fine under gnome;
        • does not work (but does not crash either, just does nothing) under kde;
        • crashes under other wm's (all of them so far that we tried).

        I'm working on it, but as I don't know what's wrong, I have no idea how long it will take.

          This is the message that the wm may or may not support.
