Strange that this happens after an upgrade. What initalization mechanism do you use for your X session? Do you use the "chained" approach, i. e., ~/.xsession containing #!/bin/csh source ~/.cshrc exec ~/.xinitrc and all your session startup stuff in ~/xinitrc? (I'm using this approach for many years with XDM successfully.) > Disabling XDM and starting X manually works. In this case, ~/.xinitrc will be processed. XDM does use ~/.xsession instead (same content can be used). This seems to indicate that the upgrade did not affect the programs called. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
