Most (not all) of the times when I STOP an INTERFACE Xastir itself quits. Because I launch Xastir via my X11 windows environment on Mac OSX I don't know much about turning on the various logging capabilities of it. What would the launch look like in the Unix environment to turn on logging so I can investigate why this problem happens?
Bring up an Xterm, inside that type: xastir -v 4095 & which will turn on all of the debugging bits. You can also turn on debugging from inside Xastir but that won't help you if you don't start it from an Xterm to begin with. You can also do this: (xastir -v 4095 2>&1) | tee run.log Which will then pipe all of STDERR and STDOUT into the file run.log, as well as dumping it to your screen. What kind of interface is causing this, USB? What version of Xastir? Anything in your system logs? For Linux a good place to look is /var/log/messages, don't know about Mac's but some system logs should probably be down under /var/adm/ or /var/log/ as well. -- Curt, WE7U. archer at eskimo dot com http://www.eskimo.com/~archer Lotto: A tax on people who are bad at math. - unknown Windows: Microsoft's tax on computer illiterates. - WE7U.
