Hello ! I fail when I try to run windowmaker window manager. I've installed it from Ports/Packages CD of FreeBSD 3.1 Release by running /stand/sysinstall as root -> post install packages. The /stand/sysinstall program reports succesfull installation. but it leaves me with a broken symbolic link to libwraster.so.1 . this is what I get when I try `wmakerī as default window manager in .xinitrc : /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libwraster.so.1" not found . bash $ locate libwraster /usr/X11R6/lib/libwraster.a /usr/X11R6/lib/libwraster.la /usr/X11R6/lib/libwraster.so bash $ file /usr/X11R6/lib/libwraster* /usr/X11R6/lib/libwraster.a: current ar archive /usr/X11R6/lib/libwraster.la: English text /usr/X11R6/lib/libwraster.so: broken symbolic link to libwraster.so.1 I think it means I have static library but no dynamic library of libwraster? when I read the FAQ of wmaker , this is what I see as fix in case wmaker is unable to locate libwraster.so.1 : ldconfig -m /usr/local/lib but this doesn't solve the lack of dynamic library problem , I guess it just tells wmaker where libwraster.so.1 is located. do I have to compile-build the windowmaker ? (I did install all the packages belong to windowmaker package - from /stand/sysinstall) thanx for any suggestion :-) /kave ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
