Hi Kresimir,
I have the same issue with Mathematica 6, and I ended up running it
under Xnest (at the suggestion of Ted Zlatanov). That works although
it's pretty ugly: no anti-aliased font support in Xnest as far as I can
tell, and the Mathematica front-end seems to be a very ill-behaved X
application, which causes some problems with screen refresh and phantom
key events when you switch stumpwm groups.
For what it's worth, here's the script I use to start Mathematica using
xfwm4 as a subsidiary window manager (the sleeps may not be strictly
necessary, but I had some problems without them). Setting the font path
in both the main X server and the nested server seems to be required.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/bash
xset fp=
/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc,/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi/:unscaled,/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi/:unscaled,/usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1,/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi,/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi,/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType,/usr/local/Wolfram/Mathematica/6.0/SystemFiles/Fonts/Type1,/usr/local/Wolfram/Mathematica/6.0/SystemFiles/Fonts/BDF
sleep 2
Xnest -ac -geometry 1920x1170 -fp

:1 &
export DISPLAY=:1
xfwm4 &
sleep 5
mathematica
killall Xnest
----------------------------------------------------------------------
But, of course, that's yucky. If anyone does come up with a fix for
this problem within stumpwm, that would be really great.
Cheers,
Ian.
