Problems with grabbing

[Anke Koelzer]

Hi,

thanks for DDD. I'm using it since many many years and it it a very 
helpful tool.

Currently I have a lot of trouble with it. I have a standard 
installation of ddd from Suse Linux version 8:
GNU DDD 3.3.1 (i386-suse-linux)
Copyright (C) 1995-1999 Technische Universität Braunschweig, Germany.
Copyright (C) 1999-2001 Universität Passau, Germany.

If I run my program which uses the QT-graphics library and I set 
breakpoints, my whole interface (all running applications) gets 
stuck, especially the keyboard. I still can click buttons and use the 
mouse but I cannot use the keyboard anymore.
I get the following X-warnings:
Warning:
    Name: node_popup
    Class: XmRowColumn
    XtGrabKeyboard failed.

Warning:
    Name: bp_popup
    Class: XmRowColumn
    XtGrabKeyboard failed.

I attached a snapshot of my x-windows configuration and also the 
ddd-logfile log. Additional information at the end of this mail.

I tried it with and without the "continue automatically when mouse 
pointer is frozen"-setting in the ddd-preferences but this did not 
help.
I did not have these problems with the Suse linux distribution 7.3.

Have you got any hint for me? Like this ddd is not usable.

Thanks and kind regards.
