Yeah, I forgot about that. dtspcd is also used by much of CDE. > > > Looking through the CDE git repo, nothing jumps out at me to suggest a > > smoking gun. > > Let me fantasize here a bit, since we have no clue what is going on. > > I think should be possible to trace X11 the events going back and forth (some > thing > like "xev" is doing).

I know DTrace (used that since my Solaris days and now on FreeBSD) but don't know how to use eBPF.

Just a wild guess. Maybe. FreeBSD's Xorg is current, as is our Wayland support. The Xorg I use is the latest in ports/pkgs. I don't use Wayland (though it's installed). You, if you're using the latest Xorg from FreeBSD, and I are using the latest freedeskop "improvements." I'm off work until Thursday. I have some Linux VMs there not belonging to customers. I'll try CDE on one of the VMs. Are there packages available or do I need to build from source. The last time I built CDE from source on Fedora, it was a painful experience since not all of the tools needed to build it from were either availalbe or compatible. That was about four years ago though. -- Cheers, Cy Schubert <cy.schub...@cschubert.com> FreeBSD UNIX: <c...@freebsd.org> Web: https://FreeBSD.org NTP: <c...@nwtime.org> Web: https://nwtime.org e^(i*pi)+1=0 _______________________________________________ cdesktopenv-devel mailing list cdesktopenv-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/cdesktopenv-devel
