Ah, you on drugs? Sorry, but I'm just bewildered by your response. Dhruba said in his first post that he did enable all that stuff - if he didn't he wouldn't be able to run xterm either. Futhermore, if that was the problem, how would re-emerging X solve it? Ahh, anyway, back to Dhruba. It seems that I posted the same message twice instead of posting the reply to my own message. I was able to emerge and run eterm with no problems. Did you try doing that lsof? Jason -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
