[wmii] Dear list

Hi I want to use wmii but I can't start it. (After the initial help
window it just exits). This is the error I get
when running wmii this way:

rm -fr .wmii-2.5/; startx /usr/bin/wmii >output.txt 2>&1

waiting for X server to shut down

-----------------------------------------------------

I don't know why ixp server can't connect.. I can also provide you with
a strace log.. But it's huge. Any ideas how to fix it

Running as root works fine.

I've downloaded the latest release.
I'm running gentoo linux. (I've not used the ebuild because that did'nt
work, either)
Should I wait for version 3 or use snapshot?

Marc

PS: Is anyone interested in a 9base ebuild? There have to be made some
patches because gentoo installes to an image directory before installing
it into the final place (/usr(/local)/9/...) but because the etc path is
is compiled in you would have to add another variable like
$FINALINSTALLDIR...
