xchat problems

Postby Rick » Sat Oct 06, 2001 8:21 pm

I DLed and installed xchat. I thought an alias would be put into applications, but it wasn't. When I tried to start xchat from a terminal I got the following messages:

Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by C library
Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C
Gdk-WARNING **: can not set locale modifiers
Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
[1] Exit 1 xchat

I have no idea what to do to run xchat. Could someone please advise?

A second question about xchat, and these parted apps... Do all of them require that X11 be installed?

Thanks.

xchat is a program designed for the x11 interface(or environment whatever you want to call it) so ya, it needs it. I think there's a macosX bianry out there tho for osx.

To use Xchat you need to get XFree86 <A HREF="http://macosx.forked.net/ports/XFree86-4.1-OSX.tar.gz" TARGET=_blank>http://macosx.forked.net/ports/XFree86-4.1-OSX.tar.gz</A> . (uncompress it then run ./install.sh from the terminal in the XFree directory.) See <A HREF="http://www.xfree86.org" TARGET=_blank>www.xfree86.org</A> for more information.

It looks like you are already logged in as root, so try:
<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">code:</font><HR><pre>
chmod +x ./install.sh
./install.sh
</pre>[/quote]

(I'll be putting up a rootless xfree pkg in the next few weeks) [img]images/icons/wink.gif"%20border="0[/img]

are you starting xchat from Terminal.app? If so, try starting it from an Xterm in Xfree86 (Xdarwin).

I've installed your XFree86 package twice now.. making sure I didn't everything right.. I'll paste it just so you can see..

[freezer [img]images/icons/grin.gif"%20border="0[/img]esktop/barf/XFree86-4.1-OSX] root# ./install.sh

Welcome to the XFree86 4.1.0 installer

You are strongly advised to backup your existing XFree86 installation
before proceeding. This includes the /usr/X11R6 and /etc/X11
directories. The installation process will overwrite existing files
in those directories, and this may include some configuration files
that may have been customised.

If you are installing a version different from 4.1.0, you
may need an updated version of this installer script.

Do you wish to continue? (y/n) [n] y

Checking which OS you're running...
uname reports 'Darwin' version '1.4', architecture 'Power Macintosh'.

Bindist version is 4.1.0
Checking for required files ...


You appear to have an existing installation of X. Continuing will
overwrite it. You will, however, have the option of being prompted
before most configuration files are overwritten.
Do you wish to continue? (y/n) [y] y


Removing some old directories that are no longer required...

Updating the fonts.dir file in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc...

You appear to have a termcap file: /usr/share/misc/termcap
This should be edited manually to replace the xterm entries
with those in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/etc/xterm.termcap

Note: the new xterm entries are required to take full advantage
of new features, but they may cause problems when used with
older versions of xterm. A terminal type 'xterm-r6' is included
for compatibility with the standard X11R6 version of xterm.

If you are going to use rstart and /usr/X11R6/bin isn't in the
default path for commands run remotely via rsh, you will need
a link to rstartd installed in /usr/bin.

Do you wish to have this link installed (y/n)? [n] y

You must have /usr/X11R6/bin/ in your PATH. (this will probably fix your xdarwin problem also). See: <A HREF="http://macosx.forked.net/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=2&t=000001" TARGET=_blank>http://macosx.forked.net/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=2&t=000001</A>
