I meant the GTK warnings that appear at run time (the "assert failed" warnings).
I've never gotten GTK warnings when building a working version...but I've never
built under Windows either.

Did you test with Windows 98SE?

Windows 98SE has no issues with the insert key when running under GTK in Linux..
which would mean the problem is with VK_INSERT.

I should have been clearer.

The glitches that I fixed were for the Xvid fullscreen driver. Windows build
still uses the null fullscreen driver.

Thats to be expected with the null fullscreen driver. qemu's GTK support
expects the fullscreen driver to change the resolution of the host to match
that of the guest (that way the window will take up the entire screen).

I'm working on an SDL fullscreen driver, but it is uglier. (It'd require
usurping the internal DisplayState structure and replace the GTK routines with
custom SDL versions for the duration of fullscreen mode Exiting fullscreen mode
would then have to restore the GTK routines. Not to mention syncing the 2
frame buffers between switches.)

I never thought about that. Does the XP toolbar show up when using SDL's
fullscreen mode?

That is weird. I've seen that once before, when the pointer grab failed (because
the host pointer was outside the GTK window) but then GDK later grabbed it
anyways. When it did the grab, it failed to render the host pointer invisible.
The effect was a "swirling mouse" in the middle of the guest screen.

This is expected behavior. Currently the GTK code assumes that the entire window
fits in a single screen. When it grabs the mouse (and after it renders the mouse
invisible), it confines the pointer to an area in the very middle of the window
that is approximately half the size of the full area of the window. When the
host pointer hits the border of this inner area, it is wrapped to the other
side.

Because the GTK window was larger than the screen, when the host pointer hit the
edge of the screen it wouldn't be able to move any more .. which means the guest
pointer wouldn't be able to either. Even if it was at the top corner of the
window.

It's really a hack around a GDK limitation.
