I found in the context switch routine that if the cpu is idle, it calls the routine xidlework to perform some X window related work. I am not familiar with the details of X11, but I would be very interested in knowing what work is xidlework doing. Thanks for any information, pointer, or reference. Marc (marcsth@csri.utoronto.edu)
