That made the "MIT-SHM ...." message disappear. But Paje still dont' appear on my Xterminal.
I've waited a while (10-15 mn) and I noticed that the "font_cacher"
process is still running and consumming CPU (~ 3 mn during these 15 mn)
and my Xterminal is still slower than usually.
I see..
The xlib backend (one of the graphic back-ends for GNUstep) takes a very long
time and puts the X-server to its limits to discover the fonts available. (I don't
know why it works that way). At least, this is done only once, then it caches
the result. This normally takes a long time in a linux workstation, and probably
takes still longer in a X-Terminal.
Anyway, the other backend (art) works differently: it gets its fonts from
files installed with GNUstep, and doesn't need to make this slow discovery.
On the other hand, to use it, you must install some fonts (there are some
in www.gnustep.de/Fonts and http://wiki.gnustep.org/index.php/nfont%20packages)
and configure back to use art (./configure --enable-graphics=art in back directory)
