HI

The perllib version gives:

linux:~ # fvwm-perllib --version
2.5.5

When I run from the fvwmconsole:

FvwmDebug -l logfile

then in the logfile I see entries like M_FOCUS_CHANGE etc.
When I then try to run the module, nothing happens and no
extra entries apppear. I noticed one strange thing: I tried
to run a non-existing module to see if an error message
appears when the module is not found, but this does not
happen. I.e. when I enter in the fvwmconsole

module /home/jos/nonexistingmodule

then no error message appears on the console. On the other
hand, when I type

module nonexistingmodule

then an errormessage does appear, saying that the module is not
found in the module path.

Now I just tried to run the module from the commandline. Then
I see this:

linux:/usr/local/src/fvwmperl # perl module-gtkwinlist
FvwmPerlGtkWinList should be spawned by fvwm normally.
Activating a dummy command line mode for 30 minutes (no events).
----------------------------------------------------------------

and a gtk window appears, but the buttons are not functional and
no windows appear in the windowlist.

I hope this helps,

jos

ng wrong?

I am not sure how this may happen.

Do you have a correct fvwm-perllib in $PATH? Run: fvwm-perllib --version

Does FvwmDebug and FvwmGtkDebug work for you?

If you run the test modules from the shell command line do you enter the
dumb module mode without errors? Press Ctrl-C.

Regards,
Mikhael.
