Re: [ferret_users] slackware



Hi,

I have had the same problem using Mandrake10.1 and Ferret5.8 compiled
for RH9.  However, when using Ferret5.8 compiled for RH7, everything
works fine, including ferret -gui.  This might be a solution.

Regards,

James

is there a trick to getting ferret to work under slackware? version 5.60 works perfectly, but i can't get any of the more recent ones to work. 'ferret -gui' produces reems of warning messages like this:

Warning: Cannot find callback list in XtAddCallback
... many duplicate lines deleted here ...

a partial gui does then come up, but there aren't any
widgets to click on.

this problem was noted in the 'known bugs' page but
claims to have been fixed in version 4.45 - looks like it might have crept back in after 5.6 :-(
