Hi, Does anybody out there use xvgr? And has anyone gotten an ELF xvgr to work? I recently took the plunge and started the migration to ELF binaries. I was probably a bit too ambitious, and changed the X Window binaries to ELF too. This broke some programs (of course), and I ended up changing the Openwin/Xview binaries to ELF too. Today, I suddenly discovered that xvgr (version 2.10, which I had recompiled to ELF) would die upon trying to enter *any* data. The message I get is something like this: X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) Major opcode of failed request: 101 (X_GetKeyboardMapping) Value in failed request: 0x0 Serial number of failed request: 847 Current serial number in output stream: 847 I am not familiar with xview programming or X11 programming, so I am sort of stuck. I found the XGetKeyboardMapping function call under X, but none of the .c or .h files in xvgr refer to it directly. Could it be that the xview library is broken? Doing a strings /usr/openwin/lib/libxview.so.3.2.0 does show XGetKeyboardMapping. But this doesn't help me any. As far as I know (looking through various ftp archives), there doesn't seem to be any precompiled ELF binaries or patches. I would be very greatful if somebody has any advice. Thanks in advance.
