This should disappear then, right? I had a problem this morning after moving from 3.0-current of July 1997 to 3.0-current of yesterday. Had to rebuild (at least) elm. And when the user started elm he said he couldn't move up down to the messages with the cursor keys. I was blaming this to a possible mess I may have had with /usr/lib still being in the ldconfig path. Right now I'm gonna reboot that machine with all stuff in /usr/lib removed and the right /etc/rc setting as what LDC_ is concerned. > Doug White | University of Oregon > Internet: dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu | Residence Networking Assistant > http://gladstone.uoregon.edu/~dwhite | Computer Science Major -- Chris Christoph P.
