Hi all!

   I found from where the bloody "dot cursor stick" come out. Well,
I do not have a fix, but I can show you that Knows :-) how to reproduce
it. The bug is FvwmAuto related (it disappear if I KillModule FvwmAuto).

1) Set up FvwmAuto 1500 (quite a long delay), and a title button
   menu with a "close" option (everyone have one... or not?)
2) Fire up an xcalc.
3) partially obscure xcalc with another window (e.g., rxvt)
4) Now, go on the xcalc button title menu and, _before_ the xcal window
   raise up, pull down the menu.
5) Wait the timeout (window do not raise because you have the menu on
   with mouse key pressed.
6) Select close

That's it! Now you have the "dot" and you have to click and here the beep
before using your mouse again.

Hope this helps,
                  Romano
