Re: [newbie] When an X app fails how do I view error messages?
Open up an xterm (or equivlant) and type in the name of the program that is giving you problems. it'll give you error feedback. When an X application running under GNOME fails, where do the error messages go, and how can I trap for them. I am running Mandrake 7.1 with a GUI login... Something's broke, and I am not sure how to view the messages. -- Anthony http://binaryfusion.net Computers are not intelligent. They only think they are.
