Two questions:
1st) I installed windowmaker w/ the pkg_add command (Wow is this easy
adding software now) and it installed, I lauched it & I works, sort
of. When ever it tries to access an icon I get a message that it
couldn't convert and RImage to an XImage. The icons on the tiles are
more noise than a decernable pattern. Has anyone had this experience?
Was it easy to fix?
2nd) I downloaded AfterStep 1.4 from afterstep.org and followed
directions to ./configue, xmkmf, make Makefiles, make; make install;
make install.man. I get an error an hour or so into the compile stage
where it looks for freeBSD files. mainly to do w/ scsi if I
remember(freebsc_scsi.c & freeBSD_cdrom_scsi.c?????). I know
Afterstep-1.0pre2 was ported and I use it successfully. What voodoo did
you work on that source to get it to compile under NetBSD mac68k?
If I can get this compiled I'll make the binaries available.
Thanks
Gerald
