I tried to reinstall xbase-clients (1:7.1.ds-3) but the problem is still there :-(
which postings are you referring to?I only have this one: "Went through EVERYTHING including downgrading the "ABI" culprit (xbase-clients), playing with all the apparently duplicated fonts paths, etc.
to no avail." -- +-----------------------------------------------------+ | Lorenzo Bettini ICQ# lbetto, 16080134 | | PhD in Computer Science | | Dip.
