Hello,

I will only answer to what concerns GnomeMeeting.

It is most probably a driver bug. I don't think adding a workaround for
a driver problem in GnomeMeeting is a good idea. The problem needs to be
fixed at its root, not as a workaround in the client.

I think that is the same problem than above, and I also think it is a
driver problem. The Open shouldn't block, it should just fail...
