Awesome-wm crashing xorg-server

B

Blinky

Hello,
I installed awesome-3.4.9, next, I create ~/.xinitrc with
Code: 
awesome &
line. And, now, when I try to run startx, xorg-server crashes with segfault error, no any other erorrs in /var/log/Xorg.0.log.

By the way, twm and/or xterm runs perfectly with startx (without ~/.xinitrc file). I try to find in google any solutions, but I found only one link: http://freebsd.1045724.n5.nabble.co...-Awesome-stopped-working-after-td4082545.html

I have Intel GMA 950 graphical card too, and also same erorr. Probably, it's a bug in xorg-server or intel graphical module.

I have FreeBSD-8.2,
xorg-server-1.7.5,1
xf86-video-intel-2.7.1_3
gdk-pixbuf-0.22.0_11 (and 2.22.1)
gtk-1.2.10_22 (and 2.22.1)
awesome-3.4.9

By the way, awesome runs with:
Code: 
 Option     "NoAccel"  "True"
in xorg.conf. But for me, it's not a good solution.

Is there a possible way to run awesome-wm?
Also, sorry for my bad English :3

You do have more packages than that installed right? All the dependencies etc?
You haven't just force installed xorg-server without the required dependencies?

Also, in your .xinitrc, you want execution to block, because if the parser reaches the end of this file, the X11 server is closed.

Adding '&' runs stuff in background, so you will want to remove that and just have...

Code: 
awesome
 
kpedersen, all dependencies are installed.
Also, # exec awesome follows with the same error.
 
Code: 
$xinit awesome
did not work, but putting
Code: 
exec ck-launch-session awesome
in ~/.xinitrc and calling startx does work for me.
