- Our system has recently installed the Xkernel package from Columbia, and
- we were gradually in the process of converting our Sun3's to X terminals
- when we encountered the following problem:
-
- While running twm, if a ghost window comes up on the display, and is left
- idle without placing it somewhere, then after about 5 minutes, the entire
- session is killed, and the terminal returns to the xdm login window.
- This happens whether or not twm is the final process run in the user's
- .xsession. This did *not* occur while running twm under the previous
- Sun3 kernel.
-
- Has anyone else had this problem? Is there an easy solution?
-
- Any help in this matter would be much appreciated.
