Summary: IDLE hangs when inactive more than 2 hours

Initial Comment:
When IDLE is left inactive for more than 2 hours it hangs.
The window does not refresh and I can't enter any commands.

This is Python 2.3.4, but started to happen after I
installed python 2.4a1 (also happens there)

I'm using winXP pro.

I don't recall anything funny with power management. This is
IBMT40 (laptop) but it is in the docking station all the time.
Only screen saver (slideshow) is running when computer is
idle for long time, not sleep/hibernate ...

I don't have time to check not but IIRC "idle -n" also hangs.

Miki, what operatiing system are you using?

Also, have you checked to see if something odd is going on
with power management or a screen saver?

One other thought is that it make have to do with the socket
server.
