bbkeys "cannot connect to window manager" (Solaris 9)

[Duckman]

Hi!

I am trying to get bbkeys working with blackbox on solaris, but so far every time I run it I get "cannot connect to window manager" and needless to say, whenever I press a bound key, it core dumps.

I am using bbkeys 0.8.6 on blackbox 0.65.0 on Solaris 9, compiled with gcc 2.95.3. They were build with the standard ./configure; make ; make install

On my xinitrc I have:
/usr/local/bin/bbkeys &
exec /usr/local/bin/backbox

Has anybody managed to get blackbox+bbkeys working on Solaris9? After a lot of effort I managed to get blackbox invoked through the dtlogin (/etc/dt stuff) but now bbkeys is driving me crazy!

I had a glance at the code at it seems like it 'connects' to the Window Manager through a local socket, netstat shows /tmp/.X11-unix/X0 and ls -l shows it as owned by root:root but +rwx for all, would this be an issue?

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Thanx!
