[Paraview] W2K mpi run

Dear all,

for a demo on a standalone laptop, I am trying to recreate an example 
where mpirun would run at least 2 processes for the server and have one 
client connect to it, all on the laptop and a single display.

It almost runs out of the box, but when compositing in on, it creates 
two OpenGL windows stuck in the upper left corner of my display and I 
cannot move them. The end result is that 1 window is completely obscured 
and compositing gets only trashed data.

Is there something in setup that I have missed to be able to move the 
windows freely on the screen?

I use mpich.nt.1.2.5, and the latest CVS of VTK and ParaView.

Other problem: If I use guiMPIRun, my satellite windows don't appear at 
all, so the display is completely boggus.

Any hints?
Thanks
