Hello,

I tried the last snapshot (dated 2022-03-01), which seems to work well, until i failed to launch X/Windows, giving the
following message in a Windows popup: Failed to activate virtual core keyboard: 2

Under the preceding snapshot (dated 2022-02-17) everything works perfectly.

Below the full content of the failing XWin.0.log. Any ideas?

Regards,
Denis Excoffier.
