Well Greg, I found another timer problem when starting nano-X from a
startup script. Well, actually theproblem happens when it is started by
hand after boot.
Well anyway, if you have a massive time change, using data, ntpdate,
etc, while your app with timer s is running, you get no more timer
events. My app runs on a small "portable" device with no cmos. It of
course boots to a previous date. Now, it is wireless and when it finally
finds a network, it does an ntpdate to get the correct time and boom, my
GrTimerEvent() events quit happening. Guess you use time somewhere in
the guts, huh.
Kill the app and restart it, not an option though, the timers start
working correctly.
Well, cul
