It's all still working perfectly for me on my 5.4-PRERELEASE box. > blackbox-0.70.0 A small and fast window manager for X11R6 > bbpager-0.3.1 A pager for the Blackbox window manager > bbpager won't start and errors with cannot connect to window manager. bbpager 0.3.1 appears not to work with blackbox 0.70.0, as I previously observed. Unfortuantely there is not yet a 0.4.0 release so I'm running on 0.40.0 from CVS and was waiting to file PRs for this reason, as I mentioned. > bbkeys will start but the key bindings will not work. The config and syntax has changed. In fact lots of things have changed in the bb ports and since I haven't used the updated port(s), I don't know if all the changes have been advertised in a package message for each affected port. > I'm suspecting that the update to blackbox-0.70 requires that some > of the associated tools also need to be updated. The two go together, so I'd expect both to be updated together. > I also found a reference to a blackbox update on the freebsd-ports > mailing list: > http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/mid.cgi?20050310065239.GF76038 > in which Andrew Caines said that bbpager-0.3.1 will not work with > blackbox-0.70.

Yes, I should read the whole message first. -Andrew- -- _______________________________________________________________________ | -Andrew J.
