Suddenly, xwindows program that have run for years get to the XOpenDisplay function, and the process hangs. Getting PID from ps and using kill command doesnt kill it. I can go to windows task manager to kill it. Some past compiled xwindows programs work all the time, but not when I recompile them. Newly compiled programs has started successfully a few times, not often though. I have tried everything, and can think of no further ideas to troubleshoot reason why it happening. Any suggestions? Thanks for any input. Kyle
