X11R6 have been running fine on FreeBSD-1.1(R) for about two months. i've been able to run X(11R6) now on FreeBSD-1.1.5.1(R) now by obtaining sys.* from under .../tarballs/srcdist. there's still some problem in first starting X, a SIGSEGV was recieved. but subsequent X runs fine. HLHSR_PEX had been added, XRECORD, XSREENSAVER, PHIGS with shared lib, and Motif-1.2.3 migration to X11R6, not to mention Andrew-6.3, Emacs-19.25, tk/tcl, xv, ghostview/ghostscript, nedit/jetedit/asedit, pgbrowse, and i'm to make lemacs and the postgres-v4r2 tonite. btw, are you a developer? clarence chu ... * Origin: (6:700/132)
