I could email you the core dump of 2 Megs if it would be helpful in > debugging the problem. Nope. 2 MB of mail are way too expensive for me. Due to local disk problems i still don't have XFree86 source online, so the core will be useless for me. If you can afford the 100+ MB disk space for the XFree86 source, you can easily build a -g server however. Modify the xf86site.def file to say `BuildServerOnly YES' (sp?), and modify the CDebugFlags to either DebuggableCDebugFlags (i.e. plain -g), or "-g -O2 -m486". You can debug the server online from network or a serial port, or you can also post-mortem analyze the core. I have no idea about DES authorization, but perhaps this is the problem? -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
