I made the fundamental error of speculating rather than looking at the xwin.c code. Just a quick skim shows there is infrastructure in place there to support all sorts of X events including motion. So I believe what is going on is that motion infrastructure is somehow being turned on for your X server but not for mine for reasons which are unknown at this stage. I hope this hint will start you down the right trail to figure things out. I am available for any experiments you would like me to do, but I am pressed for time so I won't be looking much further if at all into the xwin.c code myself. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
