From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: tim.newsham@gmail.com (Tim Newsham) Date: Tue, 25 Apr 2017 20:10:29 -1000 Subject: [TUHS] 8th Edition Research Unix on SIMH In-Reply-To: References: <20170328205823.45fee6fe@neon.9fans.fr> <20170330161620.14f47d53@neon.9fans.fr> <20170330203031.065891fd@neon.9fans.fr> Message-ID: I got it sorted.. the program was mistakenly thinking there were constant window resizes. the flicker is now solved. There is still some issue where the keyboard processing is sometimes getting stuck during startup... when it works, it seems to work well, but it usually fails on startup.. more debugging.
