somehow that mail appears to be lost.

Anyway, I guess the content is that it just didn't work.

I see that you found a workaround, but of course it would be best, if we 
can fix the problem at its root. I suspect it's due to the fact that the 
RKWard GUI thread attempts to do something with the X window, when it is 
already gone in R. Then, for some reason, R spawns two new devices in 
reaction to that. I'm attaching a patch that removes your workaround, 
and tries to add some better synchronization instead. Since I still 
don't see the issue, could you please test, whether this fixes the 
problem for you?

Regards
Thomas
