I selected the restart option off my fvwm2 menu.
Somehow, immediately after selecting the option, I managed to hit another
mouse button on the root window, in time for it to switch to menu mode
before restarting.
It wasn't pretty:
1. I couldn't move the pointer off that one monitor (I have three on this
sparc 20, whee!)
2. The mouse pointer was menu pointer
3. A fvwm window frame with handles and the title "untitled" appeared with
flat grey contents where the menu would have appeared
4. I couldn't cancel the menu mode by clicking in the root window
5. I couldn't focus any xterms to do anything about it
I ended up telnetting in and killing one fvwm2 process at random (there
were three), all three monitors indicated all the fvwm2 processes being
killed and xdm cycled through a login session.
I'm not worried about the logout, that seems proper. I'm worried about the
lockup when the menu appeared.
