Updated openmotif packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.
The openmotif packages include the Motif shared libraries needed to run applications which are dynamically linked against Motif, as well as MWM, the Motif Window Manager.
* Previously, when the window manager was set as MWM (Motif Window Manager) and the Mwm*freezeOnConfig and Mwm*moveOpaque options were set to "False", only icons appeared while moving a window anywhere on the screen, and no frame border was drawn. Consequently, users were having problems navigating the applications on their touch screen monitors. A patch has been provided to fix this bug, and windows are now displayed correctly when being moved anywhere on the screen. (BZ#1055235)
