Hi! Yesterday, I switched my PC from using the "Novell" Novell client on Windows XP to the Novell client provided by Microsoft. Since then, when I start XWin, xkbcomp.exe segfaults. Here's an excerpt from strace.exe:

When I start xkbcomp.exe with no parameters, it doesn't segfault. Well, how is xkbcomp.exe called, so that it segfault?
