  ===== Unspecified/Multiple/SVN =====
+   * August, 2010.  The GTK-V2 client design specifies that various dialogs (spell, skills, config, etc) should not be drawn with the X close icon on the window frame.  This works for various window managers, but appears not to work under the default LXDE configuration on Mandriva 2010 Spring.  Another report said that it did not work under KDE 3.5.10 when an unspecified theme was in use, though KDE is generally considered to not have the issue.  In any event, if X close icons appear on client dialogs, DO NOT dismiss them with the X icon.  This deletes the dialog and requires a client restart to show it again.  Use the Close button, on the lower button bar, to dismiss all client dialogs.
    * ~August, 2010 and earlier.  Various reports indicate that crossfire-client-gtk2 themes (colored text/spell window) no longer worked on some distributions when the client is launched from a user account.  Workarounds were found.  All of them essentially launch the client like this:  '''GTK_MODULES=""; crossfire-client-gtk2'''.  In at least one instance of non-working themes, GTK_MODULES was set to '''canberra-gtk-module''', but the settings for all reports is unknown.  It appears some theme engines are not compatible with crossfire-client-gtk2 theme code.  It is not yet known whether there is a way to alter the client so that its themes work properly without regard to the system GTK theme engine setting.
    * ~July, 2010.  The GTK-V2 client with account-based login support has a bug in a character create button that makes it impossible to set up a character.  It is thought this bug is in 1.50.  Current SVN is fixed.  The fix is an update to dialogs.glade, and does not require re-compile.
    * ~July, 2010.  Various reports of broken chat/say/tell/shout with trunk servers are reported:
      * Meflin reports 1.11 clients on trunk server: chat/say does not work.  It is not known if this is widely experienced or not.  Fedora is still on 1.11 (and is what was in use regarding this report).
