Can you clarify the situation for me? You have 3 systems total running
windowmaker, and 2 of them work, but 1 of them still doesn't? If that's
the case, have you tried the "move ~/GNUstep out of the way" trick on
the box that still doesn't work? I found in my testing that if I have
anything weird in the dock or clip that the whole restoration process
aborts.
If that doesn't work the next step would be for you to build it with
that line you found in startup.c completely out of the picture. In other
words, make the restoration command run unconditionally. If *that*
doesn't work there is a deeper problem somewhere.
hth,
Doug
