In the past week or so, I've ripped xfce4 out of a server and replaced it with blackbox. I also did some portupgrades ... and then the fun began. Certain X apps - GNU emacs and wireshark notably - no longer work. In both cases, I start the program from an xterm, and the screen just sits there. This is true whether I install from ports or the most recent packages tree. emacs will start with the -nw option. I went back and ripped all of X out of the system, and reinstalled it from the metaport in the current packages tree. This did not help - same problem. This is a FBSD6.4-STABLE system as of 1-19-2009 running on an Intel mobo with a 3GHz Pentium-D. Ideas as to what's going on or how to debug this would be appreciated. I'm guessing it's some library incompatibility/missing but I haven't a clue where to being looking ...
