I'm using v1.1 and trying to get a "clean" ELF system so I'm not running an a.out (COFF?) compat kernel or module, more by accident than design, so I'm in a better position to upgrade an online "production" system when 1.1 is out. # file /usr/X11R6/bin/xosview /usr/X11R6/bin/xosview: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 # xosview & [1] 3024 # Can't open display named # xkeycaps & [1] 3042 # Error: Can't open display: # xedit & [1] 3066 # Error: Can't open display: I suspect this is a lib mismatch issue rather than a.out v ELF. I'd really like to also use the 3d athena widgets but there seems to be two libs: # ll /usr/X11R6/lib/*aw* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Feb 27 22:57 \ /usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw.so->libXaw.so.6.0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Feb 23 15:14 \ /usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw.so.6->libXaw.so.6.0 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 260903 Feb 1 07:34 /usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw.so.6.0 ... /usr/X11R6/lib/Xaw3d: total 3 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Feb 29 07:42 libXaw.so.6 -> libXaw.so.6.0 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2936 Jan 23 06:20 libXaw.so.6.0 2936 bytes !? Also, xedit sucks, has anyone done xed ? I'm after any half decent editor for x other than x-emacs, like, something with a GUI interface, like Notepad for win31, (says he, as he bolts out the door and runs like hell... :) -- Mark Constable (+61 7 55275724) mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.ion.com.au/linus/markc
