- Has anybody else had strange problems with olvwm? For some
- reason, when I try to use it, it brings X down, complaining
- about some sort of memory problem (can't remember exact words).
- Oddly enough, twm works just fine.
-
- I've been using olvwm for a heck of a long time now, and have
- never had any problems. This seems to be happening on pl4 and 5.
- I've recompiled; it's not just an old binary. I'm using HLU's
- package on a 486-33, 12mb RAM, tseng, etc etc. I've had the
- same setup for quite a while (I did get a new drive; but have a
- hard time picturing /that/ causing this problem).
-
- I follow the group and haven't seen anyone else ask about this,
- so I'm assuming that I'm just missing something blatantly obvious.
- Any clues would be great; else I'm probably just stumble upon it.
