linux keystroke issue

[polve]

Hi there,

Hope this hasn't been asked before, or I might just be inept at searching for stuff in a forum :P

I have a little problem with Sil on Linux (built with X11): whenever I press "b" for starting a new character, it stops responding to any keystroke, and I must close and restart it; it only works if I select from the menu with the arrows and Return keys.

Any idea on how to fix this?

Cheers.

Nod, same issue likewise. Not unique to you! I just work around it tho

There is bug in how the input queue is cleared when transitioning between the main menu and the char creation screen.

Here is a fix if you want to compile it: https://github.com/lucianposton/Sil/...0a46af94dd12e0

You can build the whole repro if you want. It has a few minor interface tweaks and x11 bug fixes. No gameplay mechanics changes (at least so far).
