I dont think I understand what you are saying but one problem with init is that is requires full path names for its arguments. xinit alone works fine for me otherwise. for example.. xinit /usr/bin/X11/xterm -geometry 60x8-2-2 -sb -rv -fn 6x10 -T "console" \ -e $HOME/.x11start -- /usr/bin/X11/XmacII v -f 25 or just plain.. xinit both work for me. >When I compled xcalc on gcc, I got assembler error message( illegal >instructions, or something like that). What is the problem? Dunno 'bout that one.. my xcalc works. Are you using NFS by any chance? -- What do these names have in common? Bob, Flo, Augie, Curtis, Gordon, Rick, Rhonda, Meep, Bismark, Skip, Larson Petty and Harry ...did I miss any?? steveg@umd5.umd.edu

Has anyone succeeded in starting X11R4 xinit? I could comple and link it, but when I started the image, I tried to run many XmacII! I used A/UX orginal cc and gcc, but I got the same problem. Are there any bugs in xinit? When I replaced the image with old one(X11R3), I could start Xwindow! When I compled xcalc on gcc, I got assembler error message( illegal instructions, or something like that). What is the problem? Akihiro Furuta Digital Equipment Corp. Japan

What is the problem? I haven't used gcc, but have seen this with standard AUX cc and determined that the problem comes from not enough space in the root partition for compiler scratch files. Empty out /etc/wtmp and eliminate some core files and perhaps x11debug.log files. Or anything else you don't need in the root partition. I don't know where the scratch files go (I would guess /tmp) so I don't know if it is feasible to try mounting another disc there on some configurations. I have found that 2500 blocks free takes care of some very large compiles, and 1200 blocks free takes care of small source files. It would be nice to have a better error message come out than "illegal instruction" from the assembler.
