Hi All,
up till now I've only noticed problems when starting Xterm from a
window manager (in my case fvwm2.041) - now I've just installed
ImageMagick - and I can start it from any command prompt (although I
do have a script which sets the LIBPATH so that it can find
libMagick.a - which I can't write to /usr/lib or /lib) - anyway, it
all works fine from the CLI - but when I try to start it from the
window manager - nothing happens.
I've checked that the window manager has the right path (I've even put
in the full path name) and there's no typo's, because I have cut the
command from the .fvwm file and pasted it to my command line, and it
worked just fine.
Is there a logical reason why starting applications from the window
manager seems to be different than starting them from the command
line? Can someone explain it in a way which might lead to a solution
for this problem?
Thanks in advance,
Steve
