   Maybe. I don't know. What I did is to configure the window like you said
when
   the main window is realized. Maybe it's a gtkmm issue. I don't know.
   I looked at the documentation an it says that GtkSocket embeds from other
processes.
   So if you use it, is it necessary to create a new process? Because I
don't know what to do.
   http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/2.11/GtkSocket.html
   If it works for you, it should for me.
