If I kill fvwm and start mutter, emacs places itself properly.
Looking at fvwm's log I see this message when starting emacs:
[fvwm.0][GetWindowSizeHints]: <<WARNING>> reason: 6: The
hints have been ignored because the window's current size
would have become invalid. The new hints will become
active when the window generates the next ConfigureRequest.
I don't remember seeing this message before.
If I turn fvwm's:
BugOpts ExplainWindowPlacement True
When I start emacs as:
emacs -Q -g 80x40+500+500
I get this explanation:
[fvwm.0][__explain_placement]: placed new window 0x1800142 'emacs@...':
initial size 764x780
desk 0 (current desk)
current page
position 20 40, placed by fvwm (ignored program specified position)
placement method: TileCascade
Similarly for -geometry 80x40+500+500, and --geometry=80x40+500+500
When I start an xterm as:
xterm -geometry 80x40+500+500
I get this one:
[fvwm.0][__explain_placement]: placed new window 0x1800025 'xterm':
initial size 816x839
desk 0 (current desk)
current page
position 500 500 (used user specified position)
For xterm, fvwm says "user specified", for emacs it says "program specified".
This and the IgnoredHints above may have something to do with it.
