Hi all, Has anyone gotten qvwm working?
I have been trying to get it working from source or rpm since July with no success. When I saw that we now have a .deb, I thought I would have better luck, but it's the same as the last time I compiled it myself. Here's what the problems are: - if I have just "qvwm" in my .xsession, then x starts and all I get is the basic X grey background with a mouse cursor. Meanwhile, qvwm is repeatedly spawning xbiff, xeyes and xload. After a minute the X server crashes. - if I have "qvwm -n" in my .xsession, that solves the infinite spawning problem, but the rest is the same - no window manager then X crashes. Qvwm apparently is running in debug mode, as I get some gdm output when the server crashes. Here it is: 0x402a835e in select () from /lib/libc.so.6 (gdb) #0 0x402a835e in select () from /lib/libc.so.6 #1 0xbffff024 in ??
