choosing options in virtualbox #19

Thatnks for reporting. That doesn't seem like a bug, you just have to move the window or make the one behind it floating and/or move it to the top of the stack. Also, why is there a Windows window in your Linux machine?

hey the windows window is the os selecting part of virtualbox so basically the problem why we reported it
better imageThis issue seems to be related to the window reparenting regarding java applications in tiling windows.
Normally you need to addexport _JAVA_AWT_WM_NONREPARENTING=1 export AWT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit wmname compiz
to your ~/.xinitrc, however as instantwm is launched through gdm, it doesn't look like it's working.
You'd have to add it to the instantwm wrapper or /etc/profile to apply this
I can't test this right now but I'll give it a shot when I can.
One thing though: doesn't wmname compiz leave applications to assume you're using compiz? Aren't there some applications that then apply like compiz specific tweaks/behaviours that might not necessarily work on instantWM?On suckless webpage they also suggest using:
wmname LG3D

As for the compiz, I've been using dwm for quite some years now and never had any issue with that so I guess no problem there.
the menu for choosing options in virtualbox is behind the window, probably due to floating windows being on top of other windows
