Hi, there. I'm running 5.1, out of the box with the 5.1 upgrades from
updates.redhat.com.
My Xserver was set up and running beautifully. I had remote X sessions
running nicely, too. Then I started downloading some of the RPMs from the
5.2 release. Now, linuxconf and related apps will no longer run under X,
either locally or remotely. These are the errors I'm getting (trying to
start remotely, from an xterm window, which means I actually get to see the
error messages.)
When trying to run linuxconf:
remadmin (GUI frontend) exiting abnormaly (NOTE: They typo is in the
software, it's not mine. :-)
When trying to run remadmin, just to see what happens:
Segmentation fault remadmin
I've seen mention in the list of other segmentation fault issues, related to
iBCS. Is my problem because I've updated some things, but not iBCS?? Or is
there some other problem here?
I'm fairly new to Linux, although I've used various UNIX's before. However,
the past couple of weeks is the only time I've ever used the Xwindows
interface in ANY flavor of UNIX. In this particular area, I'm a complete
and absolute newbie, so be gentle, please. :-)
