Hello,

I was excited to see that the kdepim package has finally become
available through Fink. I look forward to switching to using KOrganizer,
KAddressbook and KArm in place of closed-sourse alternatives.

I went about compiling these packages from source with fink. That
process went smoothly... and took 2 and half days on a 300 Mhz G3.

I tried launching them first with Apple's X11 server. They all launch
OK, but as soon I was would select the "File" menu, the entire X Server
crashes. I was able to create a task and sub-task in karm, but touching
the file menu was deadly.

Since the X Server and not the application was crashing, I decided to
try a different X server, namely XDarwin. I followed the instructions
for replacing my X Server, and got XDarwin working fine again.

However, I experience the same issue with XDarwin-- soon after the apps
launch, the whole server crashes.

Here's my .xinitrc file:

###
source /sw/bin/init.sh
twm &
exec xterm
####

The crash creates a log file: " 
/Users/mark/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/XDarwin.crash.log"

I could post the whole thing if it would be useful. This seems to be the
core offense:

###
Exception:  EXC_BAD_ACCESS (0x0001)
Codes:      KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS (0x0001) at 0x2220a714
###

This might also be interesting:

Any ideas on how I can get these applications working? Thanks!
