I recently updated my system in the past two days, both the OS and all ports to the latest level: FreeBSD tavion.austin.ibm.com 12.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 12.0-CURRENT #6 r336172: Tue Jul 10 13:24:20 CDT 2018 bob@tavion.austin.ibm.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/sys/TAVION amd64 and now when I run vlc it no longer displays its output via X11, just does command line output/input. I have been running vlc with the following command: vlc-wrapper /Media for a long time (years) and it displayed in an X11 window with the cover art and various control buttons. Now all I get is this: bob@tavion:33 /home/bob> vlc-wrapper /Media VLC media player 2.2.8 Weatherwax (revision 2.2.7-14-g3cc1d8cba9) [0000000800ebe050] core libvlc: Running vlc with the default interface. Use 'cvlc' to use vlc without interface. libdvdnav: Using dvdnav version 6.0.0 libdvdread: Couldn't find device name. libdvdread:DVDOpenFilePath:findDVDFile /VIDEO_TS/VIDEO_TS.IFO failed libdvdread:DVDOpenFilePath:findDVDFile /VIDEO_TS/VIDEO_TS.BUP failed libdvdread: Can't open file VIDEO_TS.IFO. libdvdnav: vm: failed to read VIDEO_TS.IFO [0000000801647090] [cli] lua interface: Listening on host "*console". VLC media player 2.2.8 Weatherwax Command Line Interface initialized. Type `help' for help. > The tracks play but I don't get the X11 window output. What am I missing here? Been scratching my head and google searching but keep coming up empty handed. So, can anyone point me in the right direction? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
