hi
i'm runnig linux debian unstable with fvwm 2.5.12 and wmacpi 2.0.
i wanted to make something like wm's wharf with wmacpi and some other
docklets.
but the problem is that when i run wmacpi it doesnt refresh it's
display.
it just keeps the same thing anf doesn't change a bit.
when i switch to another page/desktop and then come back - display of
wmacpi is refreshed, but again frozen.
i was able fo work around it using
Style wmacpi Iconic (if i recall correctly).
since then - it works. when i start wmacpi, it comes as icon, and
displays everything just fine.
but then i added it to my fvwmbuttons instance with simple
*depeszWharf: (1x1, Swallow(Close,Respawn,UseOld) 'wmacpi' 'Exec exec wmacpi')
and, to my surprise, i got exectly the same result as before - i.e. it
doesn't refresh itself.

do you have any clue on what might be broken?

best regards

depesz
