Olivier,

I wasn't clear. When I use an X11 virtual terminal (urvxt or xterm) mc loads
as expected. But when I create a launcher in panel 2 using the path to the
executable. /usr/bin/mc, it freezes the computer. All in X11 using
xfce4-4.16. It's infrequently when I work in only a single text console.

Regards,

Rich
