etc.


Note, after the error:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] xc]# find . /usr/X11R6/ -iname "*xcursorgen*"
./programs/xcursorgen
./programs/xcursorgen/xcursorgen.c

Repeat By:

0) Unpack the tree in an NFS mount, mounted as a non-root user (I did this to get disk 
space on my testbed computer)
1) make world as the same non-root user
2) su # no -, so no root only executables, etc.
3) make install

Question: are you expecting me to compile as root? The "make install" phase includes 
some compilation, which I thought a bit odd.

Also, root's log files are created as "nfsnobody", which is consistent with it being 
run as root on an nfs mount mounted with root squash.
