Pressing MODKEY+space in focus mode causes screen to flicker and freeze #9

I don't know whether it happens in other applications or not, but toggling fullscreen does cause a screen flickering and freeze on firefox.

Confirmed. This happens to me on Ubuntu with any window, not just firefox. (Tested xterm and firefox) These two statements seem to be happening in an infinite loop.

[INFO] (howm.c 1739) Recieved configure request for client <0x1478990> [INFO] (howm.c 827) Arranging Clients in zoom format

Had to kill howm to stop.

To reproduce just MOD + f followed by MOD + Space for any window

I just tried this- what a weird effect it has on the window.

I will look for a fix now.
