I found this in http://www.libsdl.org/intro.en/whatplatforms.html

"Linux and BeOS support the SDL_INIT_EVENTTHREAD flag which, when
passed to SDL_Init(), asks the event loop to run asynchronously in
another thread. This is useful for color cursors that respond even
when the application is busy."

But initializing SDL with SDL_INIT_EVENTTHREAD can not get clear effort ;-(

If the monitor and server run on one machine, it seems OK.
But I have some problems while connecting the monitor via the net.
If there is no agent, the monitor works OK.
If one agent connected, and the full scene message is received, but
the prefix size of message can not read correctly!
It reminds me what happened in the agentspark before.

Is there anyone know the solution?
