the only program that I'm able to kill by pressing mod-shift-c is xterm. For all other programs I can't notice any effect.

I've found the reason. In my .xinitrc I used to start the tool root-tail to print some logfile to the root window. If I comment out that line, then mod-shift-c works as expected. I don't know why. I also wonder why manually running root-tail from an xterm after xmonad has started up doesn't cause any trouble.

Ok. This is a bit wierd. Can you narrow it down any further?

I've no idea what to look at. Can anyone reproduce this at least? I can say, however, that I don't have this issue when using dwm. Regards, Georg
