I couldn't remember what the deal was this morning, but I just did now. Somebody had a problem wherein FVWM wasn't finding xft during configuration. One thing to check is to see whether there's an "xft.pc" in /usr/X11R6/lib/pkgconfig, and then make sure that PKG_CONFIG_PATH includes that directory when you run FVWM's configure script. In other words,
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/X11R6/lib/pkgconfig export PKG_CONFIG_PATH ./configure --whatever If there's no xft.pc, it should look something like this: prefix=/usr/X11R6 exec_prefix=/usr/X11R6/bin libdir=/usr/X11R6/lib includedir=/usr/X11R6/include freetypelibs=-L/usr/X11R6/lib -lfreetype freetypecflags=-I/usr/X11R6/include/freetype2 xrenderlibs=-L/usr/X11R6/lib -lXrender xrendercflags=-I/usr/X11R6/include Name: Xft Description: X FreeType library Version: 2.1.0 Requires: fontconfig Libs: -L${libdir} -lXft ${freetypelibs} ${xrenderlibs} Cflags: -I${includedir} ${freetypecflags} ${xrendercflags} That may or may not work; it was necessary when I was getting Mozilla to build. -- [ you are my main foo ] Mike McNally -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL: http://www.fvwm.org/>.
