 318:17 < Biolunar> when i change my resolution in dwm (to a smaller one) and then back to the native, the top bar is not repainted. that's since 5.7.2, in 5.6 it worked fine
 418:19 < Biolunar> is it just happening to me or a (known) bug?
 518:24 < Biolunar> and in addition, mplayers fullscreen is limited to the small resolution after i changed it back to the native

 7reproducible with xrandr -s but not with --output and --mode, strange

11yet another corner case:
12open a terminal, focus another monitor, but without moving the mouse
13pointer there
14if there is no client on the other monitor to get the focus, then the
15terminal will be unfocused but it will accept input

21starting emacs from dmenu in archlinux results in missing configure of emacs, but mod1-space or mod1-shift-space fix this problem. this problem is new and did not happen in 1.6 xorg servers
22
23Starting emacs from xterm doesnt show this problem, he uses tag 8 for emacs

28>  Fullscreen mode with flash applications (youtube, for example) doesn't 
29> work properly neither in tiled nor in floating mode. 
30>  Fullscreen window closes immediately after opening.

32This is a known bug (for some curiosity I received the same report via 
33privmail from 2 other people within one week, really strange). 
34The quick fix is commenting out the code in lines 817/818 in hg tip 
35dwm. I cannot confirm this has no side effects (I think it does) and I 
36will address this issue shortly with a real fix.

40SDL seems to not like non-reparenting WMs:

42> I would like to mention SDL problems, however SDL is not crucial to

44> propose dwm / SDL patch or cooperation scheme in that matter.

46Patching SDL, bugging them?

50voltaic reports this:

52When I use two monitors, one larger in resolution than the other, the
53bar is drawn using the smaller x-dimension on both screens. I think
54what's happening is that there are two bars drawn, but the short bar
55is always on top of the long bar such that I can't see the information
56under the short bar. If I switch to the small screen, hide the short
57bar, and then switch to the large screen, the long bar is drawn
58correctly.
59
60A similar problem occurs when I have started dwm on a small resolution
61monitor (laptop screen) and then I switch to a large external display.
62When I do this, the bar itself is drawn for the original smaller
63resolution, but the information to be printed on the bar is
64right-aligned for a longer bar. So what I see is a bar that has the
65right hand side of it cut-off. See attached screenshot.
66
67I am using standard options for xrandr such as --output VGA1 --auto, etc.
