Yes, the server *is* sending all the updates to you. The problem is that *you* are not sending all the events to the server as fast as you should. My suggestion is that you only do the 'delay' thing after processing an update, not on every system event. That way the server gets all the events it needs. -- -------------------------------------------------------------- from: Jonathan "Chromatix" Morton mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (not for attachments) website: http://www.chromatix.uklinux.net/ geekcode: GCS$/E dpu(!) s:- a21 C+++ UL++ P L+++ E W+ N- o?
