Re: Window Manager Behaviour (Gnome)

[Don Buchholz <buchholz easystreet com>]

I think it's a window manager resource called "autoraise".  Try
'xrdb -q | grep -i raise' and see if it is shown.  Look for an entry
in files which match the .[xX]* pattern.  Try doing a recursive grep
on config files/dirs -- "grep -ir raise $HOME/.??*".
