Thanks, for the prompt response. Obviously, I took the hard way to find
what is causing the problem :) Next time I'll be more careful in expecting
the available resources.
Is there any discussion on this list on how to implement this feature ? I
might be interested in coding it.
Btw looking through the TODO list I find the following line in the section
"In the 4.7 branch":
Dynamic loading for libX11, libgpm.
I think libX11 should be removed.
