Hmm, it's still not working for me. It's very easy to reproduce:
open
an xterm, hold down some modifier while clicking on another
application;
release the modifier; bring X11 to the foreground again; the
modifier is
stuck. Always.
Yes, I see the same thing. :(
I'm certainly not trying to insult anyone's intelligence here, but
you did make sure you copied the new binary over the old one ('md5 /
usr/X11/bin/Xquartz' should be 1ec3c29ec0450a2e245dce35291b1bec)
and you completely exited X11.app and restarted it, right?
I quit X11, installed Xquartz-1.2a9, then typed xterm in a terminal.
I confirmed that the problem was still there. Then I saw this email,
so I checked the md5 of the binary, and sure enough, you're right,
it's not 1ec3c29ec0450a2e245dce35291b1bec, instead it was
943707a9ee3b49493f7ebee8c1f81a7e. But I was sure I had installed it.
So I quit X11 again, installed it, checked that the md5, and got
1ec3c29ec0450a2e245dce35291b1bec. Then I launched X, checked the md5
again, and it's 943707a9ee3b49493f7ebee8c1f81a7e. I checked this
against 1.2a8 and the Xquartz that shipped with Leopard, and none of
them match. So now I'm not sure at all what's going on.
I can confirm this behavior. The checksum changes when you have the
application firewall enabled. When it asks you if you want to allow
connections, it seems that Apple fools with the server, and that
changes the checksum. My checksum matches Ben's before X11 is run, and
even after X11 is run when I have disabled the firewall. However, my
checksum changes to 943707... (the same reported) when the firewall is
enabled and I run X11.
My server also displays the stuck shift key with Ben's test. Seems
this problem is not universal...
Cheers,
Andrew
