Before I start I would just like to say that this question has probably been asked several times before and I apologize for asking it again. We have just installed SUN OS 4.1.1 on a Sparcstation and now I am trying to make emacs for the new system. We also have X11R4 but it HAS NOT been recompiled as of yet (but will be in about a week). So here is my problem... I changed config.h to use m-sparc.h and s-sunos4.h and updated the paths.h file to use some appropriate paths and all seems to go well. I do a make all in the dist directory and it happily goes along and builds an xemacs and a emacs-18.55.1 file. But when I run the file I get Fatal error (6).Abort (core dumped) Now dbx tells me it is coming from malloc (See below) kill() at 0x76b58 abort() at 0x7a9dc malloc(n = 5), line 515 in "malloc.c" copystring() at 0x7354c _XConnectDisplay() at 0x73604 XOpenDisplay() at 0x6ab70 x_term_init(), line 1534 in "x11term.c" init_display(), line 1411 in "dispnew.c" main(argc = 1, argv = 0xf7fffafc, envp = 0xf7fffb04), line 354 in "emacs.c" Is this because the X11 files haven't been recompiled under the new OS or is there something basic that I am doing wrong ? I would really appreciate any help anyone could give me. Either reply via e-mail to me below or post to gnu.emacs.help. Thanks in advance Darryl Gamble | darryl@cs.yorku.ca Academic Support Programmer | York University | Absolutely nothing interesting to say.
