- I have recently installed HP-UX version 8.07, and X11 Release 5 on our
- HP 9000 series 700 machine. Everything seems to work fine except
- for tvtwm. I cannot get it to work properly on this machine. (Twm,
- incidentally, works just fine).
-
- Tvtwm compiles without problems and appears to execute. However, it appears
- not to read the startup file .tvtwmrc properly. None of the menu descriptions
- pop up when mouse buttons are pressed, icon managers don't show up etc.
- It gets a certain part of the way - surrounding windows with title bars,
- and that's about it.
-
- I tried using the gnu version of m4 but this didn't help. I have little
- experience of debuggers so xdb doesn't help me much. This is the initial
- output when xdb is run on the tvtwm executable:
-
- 65 hp2-% xdb ./tvtwm
- Copyright Hewlett-Packard Co. 1985,1987-1991. All Rights Reserved.
- <<<< XDB Version A.08.07 HP-UX >>>>
- No core file
- It appears that there's no debugging information in ./tvtwm (UE445)
- WARNING: /usr/lib/end.o was not linked with this program (UE836)
- Shared-library information cannot be made available (UE837)
- (file unknown): _start: (line unknown)

- Any help greatly appreciated.
- Thanks,
-
- Stephen
