Hi,

while adding some extra tracing and looking into the (huge) logfiles, I
found the following and want some opinion about that:

The logfile shows a lot of calls to:

X11DRV_MsgWaitForMultipleObjectsEx

with all parameters being 0 or NULL:

5256478:000e:Call
x11drv.MsgWaitForMultipleObjectsEx(00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000)
ret=4090e51c
5256479:000e:Call
kernel32.WaitForMultipleObjectsEx(00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000)
ret=40e09bd7
5256480:trace:sync:WaitForMultipleObjectsEx (00000000, (nil), 0, 00000000, 0)
5256481:000e:Ret  kernel32.WaitForMultipleObjectsEx() retval=ffffffff
ret=40e09bd7
5256482:000e:Ret  x11drv.MsgWaitForMultipleObjectsEx() retval=ffffffff
ret=4090e51c

(the sync trace is something I added)

x11drv.MsgWaitForMultipleObjectsEx calls WaitForMultipleObjectsEx again
with all parameters being 0 or NULL.

What's the use of this, shouldn't we bail out if everything is 0. What's
the use of waiting for something that isn't specified ?

Almost immediatly after those calls are made, my setup fails. This could
be a coincedence, but ....

Cheers,

Paul.
