Description Mark McLoughlin 2005-06-10 09:21:56 UTC

When you run Xnest with -parent, Xnest selects StructureNotifyMask on the parent
window in order to get DestroyNotify so it knows when to exit.

However, that causes it to get a bunch of other event types which it doesn't
explicitly handle causing lots of warning spew:

xnest warning: unhandled event
xnest warning: unhandled event
xnest warning: unhandled event

Attaching trivial patch

Sorry about the phenomenal bug spam, guys.  Adding xorg-team@ to the QA contact so bugs don't get lost in future.
