Michael Alwan: |XKEYSYMDB=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XKeysymDB |XAPPLRESDIR=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11 |XNLSPATH=/usr/share/nls/ | |The files are in the places that the Netscape README says to put them; the |paths are typed just as the README says to do (e.g. forward slash after |"nls"). Obviously, I've put these statements in the wrong place. Where do |they go? It might help to know I start up X from root with xdm, use the |XF86_S3 server, and once I've got the server running, use the xterm to |start Netscape. Well, I don't use xdm -- I log in and my user profiles run startx so this might change where these can be placed and picked up. I would guess that putting them in ~/.xinitrc or the global default xinitrc would probably work for both schemes but I don't know enough about how xdm transfers control. For the log-in-and-startx method, if your root user is running csh/tcsh, put them in /etc/csh.cshrc: setenv XKEYSYMDB /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XKeysymDB setenv XAPPLRESDIR /usr/X11R6/lib/X11 setenv XNLSPATH /usr/share/nls/ or if your root user is running sh/ksh, put them in /etc/profile: XKEYSYMDB=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XKeysymDB XAPPLRESDIR=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11 XNLSPATH=/usr/share/nls/ export XKEYSYMDB XAPPLRESDIR XNLSPATH Randall Hopper
