Anyone know what needs to be done to solve the message in the subject line? Here's what happened.. I upgraded from 2.2.8-RELEASE to 3.1-RELEASE a few days ago, and updated WindowMaker to 0.51.0 (from 0.50.2) yesterday and everything was fine. Earlier today, I was working on some graphics with the GIMP and it crashed and took X with it. I had to reboot with the reset button because my entire system froze. Once it came back up, I ran startx again to get back into WindowMaker and got the message in the subject. I got another /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1 file from another 3.1 box I have access to and tried again. Still didn't work. Then I tried reinstalling WindowMaker and configure couldn't find libPropList (which it did find yesterday). I installed the libPropList port again, and this time WindowMaker installed without problems. I rebooted, and tried startx again.. same thing. Has anyone seen this? I can run KDE without problems, but I want to know what the problem is (as much for curiousity sake as to get WindowMaker working again). I don't especially like KDE, but right now I don't have much choice because WindowMaker won't start. Any help would be much appreciated.
