General Questions

I'm using iSeriesAccess from IBM. The latest version (1.12) that came out on March 10, 2006..

on my FC4 it works, but FC5 uses a newer version of openmotif I guess. because when I try to install iSeriesAccess it errors out with a missing dependency for libXm.so.3

Any one have some advice for me? If I try to install the openmotif that came with FC4 it gives me a dependency error as well. I'm not sure how to get around this.

Using fedora core rel 4. On the window manager client motif/clients/mwm while linking the mwm
the above undefined reference occurs in WmMain.o.
Any hints about a solution..

Hi all

I installed a software on suse 9.3 with motif 2.1.30-9 installed on it. The software runs and
opens up windows but some fonts don't appear as they should and it see messages
like below all the time.

Warning:
Name: colorRight1TxtF_wgt
Class: XmTextField
Character '\67' not supported in font. Discarded

I removed motif 2.1 and installed motif 2.2 but this time the windows did not pop up and
it gave error messages. So it probbaly wants a library within motif 2.1 which motif 2.2 lacks.

I have installed :
[root@snapafun frank]# rpm -Uvh http://ftp.motifzone.com/om2.2.3/linux-rpm/mandrake-10/openmotif-2.2.3-2...

I also:

[root@snapafun frank]# slocate openmotif

Hi, I'm new on this forum. Currently, I'm programming a small game, and using Motif for the GUI (I have a MainWindow, a menubar, menu items and a few dialogs). The MainW's client area is filled with a DrawingArea widget (the game itself is displayed there). I didn't had any problem with the drawing and the general input events, but I needed to disabled the AutoRepeat for the keys (in order to stop a cascade of KeyPress events). I decided to do that when the window loses the input focus (I thought that using just the EnterNotify and EnterLeave was too limited).

Hi. Hope there isn't any rule against posting code here. I'm new to Motif - actually, I haven't done any GUI related programming since my Atari ST days. Anyway, I'm trying to convert the programs in the Motif Programming Manual (Vol. 6A) - open source edition from C to Modula-2 (XDS x86 compiler). Generally, I'm having pretty good luck with them, and with other C code that I've tried. Edit: I should clarify that I really know very little about C.

Hello motif users developers fellows suffering system admins: :D

Hi,

I'm trying to create a list with item of different colors with BXPRO. I heard I should use render table, but as I'm a beginner with BXPRO and openMotif, I don't understand the way to do that...

With BXPRO when I want to change the renderTable attribute of the list within the ressource editor a windows open asking me for a "selection" what should I enter?

Can somebody help me with this may be giving me an example :-)

Thank you

I'm running MWM under XDawin 1.4a1 (a version of XFree86 4.0) on a
Mac G5 with OS X 10.4.3.

On other systems I have used, the iconbox contents are saved when
I log out, so that they are regenerated when I log in again. I'm wondering
if it is possible to do this in my current configuration, and if so how.

Thankx for any assitance, Alan

I have an application that uses a XmFileSelectionBox. It has the nasty habit of making the directory selection list very wide while making the file selection list very narrow. A hack was put in that places a file called "zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.dat" in the current directory forcing the file list widget to become wide enough to accomodate it.
I was told to fix this problem properly, but I'm not sure how to do this.
