OK, but there must be another reason then.

In the meantime I have set up a completely new and empty account on my
machine. And even there: bitcoin runs with every windowmanager, but not
with fluxbox.

lsof | grep bitcoin > lsof-bitcoin-fluxbox
	(see the output here: http://alphasrv.net/lsof-bitcoin-fluxbox)
lsof | grep bitcoin > lsof-bitcoin-twm
	(see the output here: http://alphasrv.net/lsof-bitcoin-twm)

For me it's difficult to see the relevant parts. But a wc -l on either
file shows 778 lines. 


Can it be that bitcoin tries to draw its window outside of the visible
area? Is there a way to catch such a window?

And why does bitcoin draw an empty entry in the slit, as it does in the
KDE? For me that's a hint that something is wrong with drawing the
window.
