Hi Jürgen,

as Michele said, i also believe that it is a threading issue.
I'm not sure if you are allowed to use
 XtAppAddTimeOut( context, (unsigned long) timeout, handle, 
(XtPointer)this);
from different threads or if you need to dispatche the call
to the X-Window main thread ...
I would recommend to create a tiny "HelloWorld" C application with the
X-Windows main loop and two threads with pthreads and try it out in a 
debugger,

regards
Marcel
