I ran into an old problem trying to run X clients over an SSH session. The problem is that newer releases of X11 check on whether the DISPLAY is pointing to the local system, and if it is, it uses the Unix socket instead of the network socket. The result is that X will not run to the remote system. I patched the relevant source file and built XFreeBSD and replaced my libX11.so with the new one, but now I can't use X at all. I get: /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libXThrStub.so.6" not found A quick review of the build shows the following: /usr/libexec/elf/ld: warning: libXThrStub.so.6, needed by ../../exports/lib/libX11.so, not found (try using --rpath) Hmmm. Just a warning, but it means that the new libX11 is pretty useless! Any clue on the mysterious libXThrStub.so.6? Can I build the libX11 to not require the stub library? Or, more succinctly, HELP! R.
