Re: [wmii] failure on startup

Try replacing the write to /ctl with:

cat << ! | while read l; do echo xwrite "$l"; wmiir xwrite /ctl "$l"; done
font $WMII_FONT
focuscolors $WMII_FOCUSCOLORS
normcolors $WMII_NORMCOLORS
grabmod $MODKEY
border 1
!

It should tell you exactly when it fails. Does wmii produce a core file?
