[PATCH] librep compile with gcc-4.7 for x86_64

librep/configure tries to autodetect stack direction if it's not
specified. It's forced to "downwards" for sparc/i?86/powerpc, but not
for x86_64. The autodetect has worked so far but not anymore with
gcc-4.7. Compiling librep runs self-test, which detects correctly
"downwards" and conflicts with configure's "upwards". Attached patch
forces it to "downwards" on x86_64 too. 	

Comment in the source says that "upwards" is not even tested.

[PATCH 0/4] Fedora's spec.in files

This patch series updates spec.in files to match files that are used in
Fedora 16. There are lot of changes and fixes so I'm not going to
details here. Feel free to ask or see RedHat/Fedora bugzilla.

These are also available at http://b.bbbs.net/sawfish/ if my email
client has problem with long lines.

about Sawfish 1.8.91

New scripts arrival

Some interesting new scripts are on the wiki:

Home-ws:
http://sawfish.wikia.com/wiki/Home-ws
"Switch to a specified home workspace when the last window in your
current workspace is removed."

Cabinet:
http://sawfish.wikia.com/wiki/Cabinet
1) Support window icons to be shown
2) Support cycling among workspaces
3) Distinguish windows for display from windows for manipulation. 
4) Use forground color instead of tag to indicate window status.
5) Enable users to manipulate a bunch of windows.
6) Item format 

Haven't tested any of two. 

Have fun,
Teika (Teika kazura)

periodic segfault

Hi!  I have used sawfish since Metacity (yuck) came out.  Love it!  Great 
work!

I have one little problem: every 1-3 weeks my wm crashes and restarts.  
The only error I can see anywhere is on the console: "rep received fatal 
signal segmentation fault"

Are there any other logs I can look in?

When it crashes, it restarts, but all my windows are shifted down and to 
the right by the size of the titlebar/frame width.  So I have to then 
reposition all my windows to how I want them (some are off-screen a bit, 
etc).  Since I have about 200 windows open, this is a big pain.

It has crashed every couple of weeks on me for years, throughout many 
versions of sawfish/librep/rep-gtk.  I always try to get up to the latest 
version hoping it is fixed, but it never is.

I'm eager to get this solved and am pretty good at using tracing / 
debugging / logging tools and can find my way around C source.

A word about my environment, in case it's relevant: dual monitor 1600x1200 
using xorg R&R. Fedora 16. Stock Fedora sawfish rpms now that it's back in 
Fedora's stock repo.  I never log out and I have 16 workspaces.  Each 
workspace will have 5-30 windows open in it.  I probably have 200 windows 
open on average.

The crash always seems to happen when opening a new window (though I can't 
always be sure as it happens very fast).  I see the window open and then 
all the frames disappear and sawfish does its crash/restart cycle and 
redraws all the frames.  Usually it's on opening a firefox window, but I 
open zillions of them all day long so it might just be the luck of the 
draw.

sawfish-1.8.91-1.fc16.i686
librep-0.92.1-1.fc16.i686
rep-gtk-0.90.7-1.fc16.i686

Thanks!

Sawfish from GIT does not save customizations

Hello,

the newest sawfish from git does not respect my customizations anymore.

The theme is always StyleTab. I can change that using the config tool
from the menu but the cahnge is gone if I restart sawfish. Also the
application menu is in english now.

If I downgrade to the version from new years day everything is fine
again.

I do not use a DE. The behaviour is the same on Archlinux x86_46 and i686.

Regards Stefan
