[dwm] dealing with badly-behaved GUI applications

Greetings,

This may well be a newbie question. I frequently use freemind, an open-source java application for drawing mind maps. When running under dwm, version 0.8.1 stubbornly refuses to expand the map canvas to the whole screen.

As a stop-gap, I'm running a nested X server (Xephyr), with a very basic VM. This works fine, but I'm curious to know how others may have dealt with similar problems, possibly with other applications.

Best,

jds
