The error is something like _cursid not defined. Yeah, I remember that thing. I got fvwm2-95 running a couple weeks ago. I like it, more or less. I thought that there was a port in -stable. But, then I remember hacking a little too. I think what I ended up doing was changing all the #if and #ifdef's that said NETBSD to FREEBSD2 (or whatever it is). > I am at work now so I can't look up the exact filename that I am getting > the error in. > > Is there a better windows manager then this one?

Any ideas. My wife uses netscape for mail and it does that once in a while. I've never been able to track it down. Netscape is such bloatware, I'm getting to dislike it. Mail looks nice in it though (I wish they'd fix whatever is wrong with they're mime stuff however). Sorry. No help on this front. -- Paul T.
