[fdo] Bitmap program : misbehavior

[Pierre Habraken]

Hello,

I have been using the bitmap program for several years, for teaching 
purpose (introductory to elementary principles of information coding).

At present, the program does not behave any longer as it should do :
- after having clicked one of the drawing buttons (Point, Curve, Line,
   etc.) no drawing occurs inside the canvas area of the main window.

This misfunction is observed when running xorg servers (Linux), and when 
running a Windows commercial server (XWin32) as well.

I did some simple trials, but could not find out what goes wrong :
- when launched on a second server (started as 'X :1 &') on a Linux
   workstation, bitmap WORKS PERFECTLY.
- when launched on the main server (started by gdm) on a Linux
   workstation, bitmap DOES NOT REACT to clicks in the canvas, even when
   the RESOURCE_MANAGER property is empty.

I could not find a replacement program to bitmap responding to our 
requirements.
So, I would really really appreciate any help for making bitmap working 
fine again !

Pierre
