Here is the message that I sent to X Inside about 5 days ago
but an yet to get a reply.
I have just received your "accelerated X, MWM v1.1 for
BSDI BSD/OS" under FreeBSD 2.0.5. As there was no "installfloppy" utility provided, I ran "/a/scripts/install". This appeared to run correctly and installed an ".xinitrc" in my home directory. However when I ran "startx", I received the following messages:
XFree86 Version 3.1.1 / X Window System

xinitrc: *** ERROR *** Can't find mwm.
xterm: fatal IO error 32 (Broken pipe) or KillClient on X server ":0.0"
waiting for X server to shut down
Prior to installation, X-Windows ran fine, and will still run
with my old ".xinitrc" file.
After browsing your web page again yesterday, I noticed that I
have the BSDI version but I specifically requested the FreeBSD version? Are they the same or do I now have the wrong version? If so, how can I get the correct version?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Regards, Simon.
