Re: Crash on Startup

Paul,
did lesstif get updated when you did your updates?
I use openmotif since a long time (used to use lesstif, but openmotif seems
to have taken over) ... I would switch to openmotif if I were you.
Every problem of this sort I've ever had (12 yrs using Nedit) has been due
to motif libs.  Maybe also check integrity of dynamic links in
/usr/lib/wherever-libXm's are ...
