XMLOG on OpenSuSE v10.3 Problem

XMLOG on OpenSuSE v10.3 Problem

[Bill Shell]

Hello All,

I am having a problem with XMLog (http://www.xmlog.com) that occurred on
my OpenSuSE v10.3 on a AMD-64x2 4000.  The Telnet window has disappeared
off the screen.  I checked the configuration file and change the top and
left variables for location, but it won't reappear.  Has anyone else run
into this problem? 

Thank you in advance.
73, Bill
N6WS

I have similar problem when I minimize any application. I can't find it
again! Any help would be useful. Thanks. By-the-way I am not very good with
the command line, being a newbe to Linux. Charles
