Message-ID: <9106281959.AA02583@ccfiris.aedc> Date: 28 Jun 91 19:59:08 GMT Sender: daemon@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU Organization: The Internet Lines: 21 I previously posted a message stating that my window manager dies period- ically. I was wondering if there was any way of getting it back up without rebooting the machine? Symptoms: Logged in working fine. Log off, the login prompt comes up. Type in username/passwd screen blacks out, then returns to the login prompt with the message: the window manager (/bin/news_server) aborted (status 0x6) Any way to restart without rebooting after this occurs? vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv | Kenneth M.
