Segfault in all windows managers

N

nORKy

Hi, I did a fresh install of FreeBSD 9.2. I have a problem. All window managers (I try spectrwm and fluxbox) segfault when I startx. The basic test of Xorg is working (black and grey background). The generated core of fluxbox says it's "in pthread_sigmask".

Can you help me?
 
Things to check:
/etc/X11/xorg.conf instead should be /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf; The programs in /usr/local/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc and its location vs elsewhere; next but not lastly longer commands in place of startx; (search the forum for "retro" and/or "ignoreABI"... ). It could however, be a simple driver issue. The point being there are many things to check that could solve it, and once the fix is found, be sure to document it locally (and maybe here) and back up the new files, if any.
(BTW I've not time to double check the paths [etc], above, so there may exist typos...)

I moved my xorg.conf. I tried startx -- /usr/local/bin/Xorg -ignoreABI -retro. Nothing's changed.

My xorg.conf worked on the same computer with a 9.1-RELEASE i386. I did a fresh install with 9.2-RELEASE amd64, compiled all my ports (with poudriere and pkgng) for 9.2 amd64, and ran pkg install xorg-minimal fluxbox [...].

I don't know where to search. I don't think X is the real problem.
