[comp.windows.x] twm ignoring input

david@pyr.gatech.EDU (David Brown) (07/04/89)

Hello, all.  I'm trying to use twm.  Xterm seems to be ignoring any
and all input.  The menus come up and work, so I can exit out of twm.
Anyone seen this problem and have a fix?

Thanks in advance,

I have seen similar problems when I have had keys defined in my .twmrc file
which don't exist on the server I'm using.  Try commenting all the key
definitions out and see if the problem still exists.
