Yes, great. Thanks.

Tested and confirmed.

I'm afraid I still have three issues though (also reported on IRC, but...).

- the text box now stays completely empty when characters are typed; with
  the patches you posted earlier that did not happen (behaved same as newt)

- if I break off entropy gathering (using Go Back) and then try to run it
  again, I end up with an empty screen (just buttons); syslog shows:
debconf: cdebconf_gtk: CRITICAL: mkfifo failed: File exists
debconf: cdebconf_gtk: CRITICAL: init_entropy failed.
debconf: cdebconf_gtk: WARNING: tag "partman-crypto/entropy" failed to 
display!

- when I do nothing (no mouse movement or character entry, the CPU stays
  at 100%; I don't remember that happening with earlier patches, but I'm
  not 100% sure

Cheers,
FJP
