Re: [Bug-xnee] Help needed: Test the "RECORD bug"

[Henrik Sandklef]

Thanks everyone for testing :)  Compiled results below.

Ubuntu jaunty       x86     Xorg/10600000              OK

fedora 12           x86     X.Org Foundation/10701000  NOT OK[2]

------------------------------------------------------------------

This means that the X/RECORD bug is present on less platforms than 
before the fix. So an Xnee 3.04 release will actually come asap.

/hesa




[1] Key press recorded twice. Rest of the tests are ok. Reported by 3 
different users.

[2] Xorg log says:

(II) LoadModule: "record"
(II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/librecord.so
(II) Module record: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
(II) Loading extension RECORD
record: RECORD extension enabled at configure time.
record: This extension is known to be broken, disabling extension now..
