The point is that they do not work exactly fine. For ddd, the console
at the bottom is dead.
The keyboard fails. For grace(xmgrace) the same symptom is present in
all
text boxes. This appears to be a pretty general problem because the
same is true for
Fedora Core 5, but not for Fedora Core 4. I have compiled xmgrace
from sources and
I have the same problem. I have done some looking and this problem
surfaced
several years ago on a cygwin list.
Just for the record, when I invoke xmgrace from the command line, I
receive many errors like this:
Warning: String to TranslationTable conversion encountered errors
Warning: translation table syntax error: Unknown keysym name: osfHelp
I get exactly the same set from ddd. Again, this is true for AMD64
for both Debian and for Fedora Core 5.

I did a google search for "Warning: String to TranslationTable
conversion encountered errors" and found this link:

With the following suggestion:
The answer is:
export XKEYSYMDB=/usr/share/X11/XKeysymDB
This is also needed to get the grace package to work right on Breezy,
BTW.
Hope this helps
