the GtkLabel you use for the clock has to recalculate its size when you
change the text every second. Most probably this size change propagates
to the GtkClist which has to adapt to the new size and thus redraws
itself. Try to change your box layout so the label size doesn't affect
the size of any other containers, especially not one that holds larger
widgets like your GtkCList.


Salut, Sven
