- After traced the source of twm, I found that the dv/x server repeating
- send out event 28(PropertyNotify), cuase the twm to crash the memory each
- 15 secs...
- I tried to get rid off those dummy events, it seems work fine, the
- memory leak disappear..,(not sure..., however, I run it for several
- hours with no memory damage, also not sure how to tell if a event is
- useful or not)
- However, all the twm window managers are avaible, twm, ctwm, vtwm. I tested
- them several days, seem work fine. They can be ftped from ftp.csie.nctu.edu.tw.
-
- ps. I wonder if that dv/x use the event as timer..., it was send out about
- times per seconds. or the bug ?
