I can reproduce on 1.4.8, installed from the Arch Linux repositories,
on an x86-64 4.2.5 kernel, with xorg-server 1.17.4. For instance,
launching openbox (version 3.6.1) via tmpwm and exiting (right-click
on root, then 'logout') gives the control back to ratpoison, but it
remains unresponsive. Using a bogus executable as tmpwm argument also
causes unresponsiveness and creates the two unnamed windows. The only
way out of both situations seemed to kill X via Ctrl-alt-bksp.
I haven't tested on master yet. I know however that the
unresponsiveness issue when exiting the tmpwm is not new from the
current stable version, as I've encountered it systematically for a
while.
I'll try and investigate the issue later this week, if I can reproduce
it on master.
