Whenever a new window or dialog box
pops up, fvwm tries to find the least
covered area to place it. I've had
fvwm setup to do this for years now
and have always liked it, but recently
I've setup a new linux box with a good
monitor and video card. Previously,
I've always run linux at 1024x768 or
800x600 depending on what my monitor
could do, but now I have a massive
1600x1200 desktop and love it. The
only problem now is that certain
dialog boxes that are created very
far away from their parent windows,
is there some way of controlling
placement of windows based on parent
child relationships? I really like
how new and unrelated windows are
placed but it is realing annoying
moving my mouse clear across the
screen just to click the ok button
on an informative dialog box.

I sense much NT in you.
NT leads to Bluescreen.
Bluescreen leads to downtime.
Downtime leads to suffering.
NT is the path to the darkside.
Powerful Unix is.
