Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 413 by srburnet: Windows don't disappear http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=413 What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Open a window (e.g., a terminal, although it happens to all types of windows) 2. Do a bunch of other work with other windows. (This doesn't happen if you open and close a window immediately). 3. Close the original window. What is the expected output? What do you see instead? The window should disappear and the wallpaper should be shown. Instead, an artifact image of the window remains, although the window itself has definitely closed. I can't interact with the window and if open a new window xmonad behaves as if there is no additional window (the screen isn't split between the two windows). I can even drag a small window around in tiling mode over the image of the window and "erase" the closed window (i.e., the wallpaper is redrawn in areas touched by the window). I've attached a screenshot that hopefully makes sense. Note that the problem is very rare. There doesn't seem to be a pattern for which windows have the problem. What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? xmonad darcs, on Arch Linux. I am using the NVIDIA proprietary drivers with dual monitors (Twinview). I am not using compositing. The problem has occured with multiple versions of xmonad, the kernel versions, and the NVIDIA driver. Are you using an xmonad.hs? Please attach it and the output of "xmonad --recompile". xmonad --recompile yields no output. Attachments: xmonad.hs 5.2 KB bug.png 741 KB
