I think it's telling you what's going on: there's a window manager running already--Apple's quartz-wm. We don't really support Xquartz on 10.6, but what you could do is follow what I said to do in my last message, with a couple of modifications: 1) Have the /sw/etc/xinitrc-last-hook file say #!/bin/sh . /opt/X11/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/98-user.sh 2) cp /usr/X11/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc $HOME/.xinitrc 3) Edit $HOME/.xinitrc and replace instances of /usr with /opt 4) Edit /sw/etc/xinitrc.sh and change the line that says x_prefix="/usr/X11R6" to x_prefix="/opt/X11" That should make sure that kwin actually gets started. - -- Alexander Hansen Fink User Liaison -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkxXMnUACgkQB8UpO3rKjQ/jBACgo6A6CAAbvE/rACloAGEXSKM1 tr4AnR9w5E1L1hy0qEsIh6PvXd9RcavB =8N+t -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Palm PDK Hot Apps Program offers developers who use the Plug-In Development Kit to bring their C/C++ apps to Palm for a share of $1 Million in cash or HP Products.
