Hi ! I'm just fiddeling around with another FreeBSD-current machine since two days. Whenever I try to start afterstep as window manager, the machine hangs in X11 display. Plain Window Managers like twm work perfectly. I grabbed the newest -current sources and did a make world. After that I installed xpm and afterstep from the ports collection. With afterstep the console display changes to X11 and hangs, parts of X11 (afterstep's wharf) initialization are displayed. I even re-made XFree86 from the ports collection... No luck. Is there a known problem with gcc 2.7.2.1, the new .weak support, or whatelse ... it's driving me nuts ... since 2 days I don't get a working X11 running ... Any ideas ?! Now I made a package of afterstep, xpm 3.4i from a 2 days older -current machine and installed it on the machine that has the problems... I also copied the XF86_S3 server from there ... Well, afterstep's wharf now initializes more complete, a x11 xterm appears, I click on it, try to move it ... and again the whole X11 screen freezes ... *sigh* Heeelp ;-)) Andreas /// -- andreas@klemm.gtn.com /\/\___ Wiechers & Partner Datentechnik GmbH Andreas Klemm ___/\/\/ Support Unix -- andreas.klemm@wup.de pgp p-key http://www-swiss.ai.mit.edu/~bal/pks-toplev.html >>> powered by <<< ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/system/Printing/aps-491.tgz >>> FreeBSD <<<
