This tickled my memory about something that I saw the other day. I run FreeBSD 4.6-STABLE #2 and XFree86 4.2.0. I haven't been seeing your particular problems. However, I did notice that my X server has been a little less quick about flushing commands to the screen during debug sessions with pygtk. I executed a draw rectangle and it didn't show up until an expose came along.
Can you try running the X server in synchronous mode where it immediately acts on all events rather than attempting to batch them up? It is possible that there is a corner case where the server is holding up when it should have flushed. I'm sorry, but I don't know the configuration magic required to put it into that mode. -a _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
