I guess I'm the only one with this problem. Maybe someone
can advise me on what setting I may have messed up.
When I change locations, all my open windows work fine,
but when I try to launch a new window from the X11-Applications
button in the toolbar, nothing happens. I have to re-start X11.
An example application is:
/usr/local/bin/rxvt -geometry 300x300 -bg ivory -fn times -sl 1000
I get the same problem if I just create a new "location" that has no
network options turned on, and switch back and forth between locations
with and without network connections. Again, all my existing, open windows
work fine, but I can't open new windows under the X11 application pull-down
menu.
I installed X11 and the developer tools from the CD that came with my
powerbook.

I have no problem with this either... logon at work with ethernet,
and then home with airport, and just can access a remote machine via
ssh in xterm without changing any settings...
