Jeremy, sorry for the delay in my reply. I finished the test you asked for. On Fri, Oct 16, 2009 at 6:57 AM, Jeremy Huddleston <jeremyhu@apple.com> wrote:
hrm... ok. Thanks for the info. I'll be building some versions of the server incrementally from what was released in alpha1 through what is in alpha3 and will let you know when they're available... hopefully with these we can atleast hone in on the problematic change.
In the mean time, can you atleast confirm two things for me?
1) Test my xkb hunch: Install alpha3 Nuke the /opt/X11/share/X11/xkb directory Does the problem go away? (note that the 1.7 server will fail to startup this way)
This did not help. The problem persists.
2) Ensure it is actually a server bug: Install alpha1. Backup its X11.bin cp /Applications/Utilities/XQuartz.app/Contents/MacOS/X11.bin /tmp/X11.bin.alpha1 Install alpha3 Restore alpha1's X11.bin sudo cp /tmp/X11.bin.alpha1 /Applications/Utilities/XQuartz.app/Contents/MacOS/X11.bin Nuke the /opt/X11/share/X11/xkb directory (important since alpha1's X11.bin fails keymapping if that directory is in place)
The resulting install *should* work if my assumption is correct that it's a server related issue
You are right, yes, this works. -John
Thanks, Jeremy

Jeremy,
I use rxvt and xterm and both lock up equally with alpha2 and alpha3 with or without X11.bin-1.7.0901. Unfortunately, I do not have time for debugging and thus I am just monitoring closely this issue. alpha1 is working adequately for me (with some strange but relatively minor issues).

So, I've been trying for an hour or so, and I can't seem to reproduce this bug where mouse/keyboard events stop being sent when switching to/from X11 as the focused application.
I haven't heard much since alpha3, but I'm wondering if that's because people are too scared to try alpha3 after the problems mentioned with alpha2. I really want to squash this issue since it's the only problem I am aware of with this release, but I need some help to actually reproduce it.
Can someone please confirm whether or not this issue is still present in alpha3? Also, please confirm that it's there in the 1.7 server as well as the 1.6 server shipped.
I'll be building a bunch of "drop in" server binaries for testing if I can't actually reproduce this myself.
Thanks, Jeremy
