------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-13-09 06:36 ------- So I tried 'xinit' from text login with no X session running and it bombs with 'xvt: Unknown option -n' - so they are trying to replace xterm with xvt. Which in mnsho is a horrid idea. xvt reeks. Some things shouldn't be changed. -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: NEW creation_date: description: I suppose that xterm has been removed from the XFree86 package and made into a separate package. I installed from CD1 alone. I also selected "console tools" during package selection. In fact, I noticed that kdebase-konsole was selected automatically but not xterm. While the xterm rpm is present on CD1, it was not selected by default so that I ended up with an installation that had kdebase-konsole but not xterm !! The way I see it, xterm must be selected by default by the installer, more so because the window manager /usr/X11R6/bin/twm is still part of XFree86. I can imagine what will happen if I do a minimal server (with X) install and start TWM only to find that there is not a single terminal program available !!
