Hi,

I've been having a less than successfull time getting the X-inside
CDE product working.

I am running FreeBSD-2.1.5 with XFree 3.1.2 as the base X 
installation. X11R6 & local X-clients & Swim-Motif 2.0 are 
installed as /usr/local/X11R6.

This configuration has been working quite well until the CDE
installation.

First of all the installation deleted my symlink from /usr/X11R6
-> /usr/local/X11R6 and installed a swag of files under the 
X11R6 directory.  I manually cp -pRed them over to usr/local
and recreated the symlink.  A similar deal happened with 
/usr/X386 so I recreated that symlink as well.

At that point I could successfully login to the system.
Unfortunately I would get random sig11's when starting
dtmail and/or dtpad.  

In the case of dtmail it seems to work if you try it 
several times - not repeatable.  dtpad seems to have a 
problem when starting up as part of the login session,
ie if I logout whilst editing a file - sometimes dtpad
starts again and sometimes not....  Has anybody had
similar problems?  Is there some combination of shared
libraries which could lead to this behaviour?

On a related note, after installing CDE I could not get
my old xemacs-19.14 binary to run.  It would segfault
with some message about badPixmaps.  I deleted the 
libXpm installed by CDE and reran ldconfig.  Now xemacs
starts up.  Note: I had my segfaulting problems both
before and after deleting the Xinside CDE library.

Any ideas?

Regards/Mark
