Mel,
Thanks for posting that info again. I have X running on my 500a now,
but not for long! It crashes with:
X: Undefined PLT symbol "malloc" (reloc type = 26, symnum = 68)
...and others, but all crashes are "Undefined PLT symbol" of type 26.
Do you know what that means and how I can fix it? I saw your
Monsters, Inc. screenshots in Ogle, so I know your machine is running
perfectly.
