How can I change window managers?

#1 Post by ka9qlq »

I'm using flexxpup 4.21 and xvkbd works fine but i puppy 4.3 every time you change windows focus you have to click the focus button in xvkbd to force focus and that's a drag. As I understand it has to do with the window managers. Any Ideas?
Thanks
Alvin

Could it be rox over-riding the window manager?
Check the rox settings for:
Override window manager control of the pinboards and panels
Pass all backdrop mouse clicks to window manager

Anyone having a similar issue with xvkbd look here:

The autofocus behaviour changes depending on whether xvkbd is started from menu or terminal versus starting from jwm tray.
