Re: gdk events stuff debugging

[Manu TM <manutm007 gmail com>]

I'm using gcc (v4.4.1) on ubuntu (linux kernel 2.6.31-18.)

By the way, I was just reading the gtk doc on events when I found
something saying that it was a common mistake to forget to use
gtk_widget_set_events(). well, I've actually never used this function.
Could this be the reason of the mess?
