Okay, Mike#2 provided the build (http://code.x2go.org/releases/binary-win32/x2goclient/previews/4.0.2.1/x2goclient-4.0.2.1-pre03-setup.exe), I tested it, bug is gone. So we have identified the two commits that introduced it. @Mike#1: 1) Please remove them from the official tree for 4.0.2.1, as per your previous offer to do so. 2) Please discuss the proper way to re-introduce them in a way that doesn't influence startup time negatively with Alex and possibly Mihai. Mihai seemed to have a few suggestions as to how to solve the issue - me being anything but a C/C++ expert, I can't comment on their quality, though my gut feeling is that he may be right - after all, he has proven to be an able coder previously (Cowbytes and Endians ...). -Stefan _______________________________________________ x2go-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.x2go.org/listinfo/x2go-dev
