System name:		w20-575-34.mit.edu
Type and version:	SPARC/4 8.2.15
Display type:		tcx

What were you trying to do?
	I am trying to use the "windowmaker" windowmanager, which was working fine all year until a few days before the Thanksgiving break began.  

What's wrong:
	The system crashes while trying to load windowmanager.  A dozen or more error messages fly by the console window about bad pixmaps and other things (it goes by too fast to know, really), and then that's the end.  

What should have happened:
	Well, I would have liked   for the window manager to have started properly!  :)

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	[Please replace this line with your information.]

Thanks!

Dan Chak
