Hi guys,

I managed to get Windowmaker to compile finally.

I had to install bison, along with a ton of other stuff (new version of 
Windowmaker 0.1.12 I believe)

My question is as follows, as it relates solely to X and I am hoping that 
someone may have experienced a similar problem with some other Window 
manager.

I type:

# startx

and Windowmaker comes up like it should but there are some lines opf text 
that scroll by so fast in the process that I cannot make out what they 
say.  After that I get about 100 lines of the following:

Windowmaker Warning: internal X error: Bad Draw Table
Request Code: 63 X_CopyPlane
Request mirror code: 0
Request ID 0x0
Error Serial 2281 <---Note this number changes each time this message 
comes up.

I _do_ get a single xterm up from the .xinitrc file and I can type in it 
and do all kinds of fun stuff there as normal, but if I try to move the 
window around on the screen, I get the error message listed above...

Any help would be appreciated, and once I get this thing working I will 
try to make a .tar.gz of it for anyone else that wants it.  It looks real 
cool, and has a lot of nice features (well, so I hear..I can't use it yet 
so :P  )

Anyway,  thanks in advance

Greg
