15 I am not seeing this issue but I run my entire env out of a prefix
16 including WM (Xfce4). I don't run 'startprefix' either because every
17 terminal I open is a prefix term. I have no clue what would change here,
18 there hasn't been any significant updates to X or any underlying
19 libraries that I can think of. The biggest upgrade there is has been
20 when I ported qt-4.4 to prefix but AFAIK, that is still masked and
21 shouldn't/won't even cause this issue. Let me know if I can be of
22 anymore assistance.
