[Last modified: March 93] Answer: From David Brooks: The commonest cause of early mwm demise is as follows: - You, or someone, built Xlib in the default way using the Xsi internationalization functions. - Your Xlib wasn't installed completely (or at all). - Early on, mwm calls the function XmbTextListToTextProperty, which calls _XConvertMBToCT, which looks for the Xsi locale database, finds it missing, ignores this fact and tries to dereference zero. The workaround is to find the database *somewhere*, and point the environment variable XNLSPATH at it. For example, in my personal X source tree: setenv XNLSPATH /home/X11r5src/mit/lib/nls/Xsi ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- END OF PART ONE -- .........................Go Back Up
