Hi,

When I start latest POL, it just hangs there, and no GUI shows up. This would be a first startup, no configs from previous versions there...

Adding "set -x" in the startup script, I see that it runs in a loop doing something.
+++ cat /home/tom/.PlayOnLinux/configurations/guis/fQMWB3PIKO1occLv6X0qBnOom4uaKq4PxkSA3VODHHQD0ZXU90
++ MESSAGE=
++ sleep 0.1
++ '[' '!' '' = MsgOut ']'
+++ cat /home/tom/.PlayOnLinux/configurations/guis/fQMWB3PIKO1occLv6X0qBnOom4uaKq4PxkSA3VODHHQD0ZXU90
+++ grep '^MsgOut$'
++ MESSAGE=
++ sleep 0.1
++ '[' '!' '' = MsgOut ']'
+++ cat /home/tom/.PlayOnLinux/configurations/guis/fQMWB3PIKO1occLv6X0qBnOom4uaKq4PxkSA3VODHHQD0ZXU90
+++ grep '^MsgOut$'
++ MESSAGE=
++ sleep 0.1

and so on and on and on...

Ok, nevermind. Seems it was some bug in python.

There was some update available, and afterwards POL worked fine. Geez.
