  • Platform
    12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-12500

Expected Behaviour

Restart normally.

Actual Behaviour

Stuck in loading.

Steps to Reproduce

  • Reduce the problem to the smallest fvwm configuration example (where
    possible). Start with a blank config file (fvwm3 -f /dev/null) and go from
    there.

With testconfig:

  1. Open a gui program and iconify it.
  2. Restart Fvwm3, stuck in loading.

With normal config:

# Disable Icons from appearing on desktop.
# Comment this out or use Style * Icon to get the icons back.
Style * !Icon
  1. Comment out.
    # Style * !Icon
  2. Open a gui program and iconify it.
  3. Restart Fvwm3, stuck in loading.
  • Does the problem also happen with Fvwm2?
    I didn't try.
  • Include your configuration with this issue.
    testconfig

Does Fvwm3 crash?

I didn't find any corefile.
Finally switch to tty to kill Fvwm3.

Extra Information

  • Attach $HOME/.fvwm/fvwm3-output.log from the step above.
    With testconfig: fvwm3-output.log

Actually, I didn't change it in my config, just curious why it happened, that's ok.
