Re: fluxbox permanentely freezes pointer device

Hi Thomas

I do not use any version of fluxbox which contains your patch.

The freeze seems to happen spontaneously (occurs within 1 to 3 weeks). So far I have not been able to find out how to reproduce this bug. There are 8 devices which have this problem. So far it happened about 15 times. The problem is discovered after a user closes the screensaver (xscreensaver) by touching the display. I don't think that xscreensaver is related to the problem.

Currently there is one device in frozen state.

Best regards
Anton
