The problem is that it's sensitive to the PATH used when running.
I'd put /usr/X11R6/bin first in the PATH (in startx.bat) before calling
startx, and that lead to WM crashing.

So, the answer is not to do that.  :-)

Re: xwinclip - update and motif clipboard

2002-09-06 Thread Chris Twiner 

Woohoo!  So, when do we get to see the beautiful new code?

Hi Brian,

I can clean up what I have now, pre motif clipboard and do another post of 
it to the mailing list.  Official release wise is down to Harold.

I'll tidy it up tomorrow and send it out.

Chris

XFree and NT4.0 SP 6 hang after first client

2002-09-06 Thread Andrew Robinson 

I just installed the latest stable XFree using setup.exe, and am experiencing 
an X server hang after the first client. I was starting the server using 
startxwin.sh, and it would appear to immediately hang, so I tried starting 
just XWin directly. That worked - at least the mouse pointer would move 
around the screen. I then started one client, such as xterm or xeyes, and 
that client would work properly. However, as soon as I attempted to start a 
second client, the X server would hang. I needed to kill it in order to shut 
it down. I don't see any errors in the server log file. Any ideas on what 
could be causing this?
