Can't find any other obvious problem. I still think that waiting 250ms for the thread to start is a worse solution than using a semaphore as i did in my own patch at David's suggestion, but it seems that even you say my patch is not good you ended up coding something that while somehow different is effectively the same. For me i'm happy that you commit your patch, this way if it still fails after this patch it won't be my fault. - Albert On Aug. 18, 2011, 9:45 p.m., Dawit Alemayehu wrote: > > ----------------------------------------------------------- > This is an automatically generated e-mail.
