the behavior she's describing is very fleeting. Just the barest flash
of a window being drawn and then destroyed. If your system is pretty
fast, you might not see it at all. My tiled WM (xmonad) doesn't even
have time to draw more than the frames before its gone. None of the
window contents get drawn. 

I have a handful of WM's installed. I'll try them all and see what I
get.

meanwhile, Heather and Geoffrey, what WM's are you using?
