	This will probably process enough X events to render the window on the
screen.

	And this will ensure that no re-rendering occurs whatsoever, since no X
events will be processed.

	Python should be setting the ORB up so that it processes CORBA requests
while in the Gtk mainloop. So simply do.

	gtk.run ()

	And you should get both working; if not, it's a bug - or you need to
call some other init function.

	Please mail the python binding author, and not the list - I don't
believe he reads this with any regularity.

	Regards,
