- I have seen several times when Executor ignores the keyboard. The keys
- show up in the Xterm that I started executor from. I have no idea why this
- occurs.
- I have not seen somethng as moribund as this. (my mouse has always
- worked.)
- This is a problem which has persisted across several versions of
- executor and the Linux kernel -- I now use 1.99n and 1.2.8, and it showed
- up last night. Is this possibly window-manager related?
