I am using xterm on RHEL with KDE.

Usually after a couple of days, the xterm terminals get stuck i.e. I am not able to resize or relocate them. After this, even if I open a new terminal, it is stuck the same way.

What I do is logout and login again.

Is this a bug with xterm? Is there a known solution?
