I had the same problems and found the following workaround: Compile xdvi with -DNOTOOL. This isn't a perfect solution because page 1 isn't drawn before the window is resized (upper right button under dxwm). But after that things work fine (except that some commands don't work - but that might be a consequence of NOTOOL(?)). If you don't "resize" the window in the beginning, xdvi will die very badly ... As I said before: My solution is just a workaround ... -- Georg Wittig GMD-Z1.BI P.O.
