That was it!

Thanks. It worked as root and I did knew that I can write to /tmp but I
didn't know that some action had created /tmp/.ixp-marc/ with root
permissions.

Now everything looks fine.

Didn't notice that either. Thanks! It works well. I think I didn't
because it's obvioulsy not set in config.mak
Now the ebuild works fine.
Perhaps I can contribute it? Do you know who did create the existing
ebuild?

And I like most that I can still use F1, F2, ... keys compared to vim
;-) Have to read the documentation now. Think I will like this wm even
more than treewm.

Nice work
