- Has anyone heard of any problems with mwm under AIX 3.2 and xdm? It
- is trashing the DISPLAY variable on all my systems. $DISPLAY is set
- to :0 before mwm executes. Any shells started from mwm inherit a
- trashed DISPLAY variable, usually 0:.46 or equivalent garbage.
-
- If I execute twm instead of mwm the problem goes away. I've tried
- setting MWMSHELL to different things, including ksh and csh but the
- behavior still persists.
