>to your startx commandline. I supposed the problem was there! I'll look at -listen_tcp and at hosts.allow. I have doubts about setting hosts. X used to give me errors about not being able to connect (but still worked!). Then I tried to set up hosts correctly and now here's the new "problem". I've read "man hosts", read the handbook and googled around but it's not very clear what I should write in this file. My hostname is lucy. It's a laptot that eventually connects to the nearest available network. So it isn't part of a domain or something like that. In the end I set up the concerned hosts lines to: ::1 localhost localhost.my.domain lucy 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.my.domain lucy Is it correct? Why should I leave localhost.my.domain ? >These messages are errors telling you the window manager cannot manage these >mimetypes. >Did you remove any ports for handling these types of archive files? No, I didn't remove anything! But I copied just 3 warnings. There were 130 of them related not only to archive files handling but almost to everything. >This error refers to the artsd daemon already running, or the system thinks >this daemon is running.

Either with the kde "launch program", either launching the file in a xterm, either when firefox opens a new popup....And I think those are pretty much all the possible ways I explored! _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
