I just installed a new DragonFly/amd64 system on a blank disk. Most of the basic applications (base system, non-graphic packages) work fine.
While building applications from pkgsrc, I noticed many crashes of make(1) with signal 11s. Nevertheless, I was able to install most of the programs I wanted. Things took a turn for the worse when I tried to run X11. None of the window managers I tested could run. They all crashed with signal 11s. The only application I was able to run under X is xterm. All others I could test crashed immediately after launch. I don't believe the new amd64 port should be so unstable. My test machine is a Core 2 Duo system and runs DragonFly/i386 perfectly fine. What can I do to find out what's wrong with X11 applications ? -- Francois Tigeot
