Thanks for the tutorial.
I reinstalled everything and etheral-gui came up! yipee. Much thanks to Fabrizio and Ulf !!!
The only changes are that now I am using
glib as binary, not source.
and ethereal-0.10.10, not 0.10.11.

Anyway, you cant beat success.
Now I can concentrate on writing our FlexMsg Dissector.

Thanks again.

Newbie here with ethereal core dump on startup (core, pkgs, error below).

Q: XPM is font related?
Should I do the gtk tutorial,
try redhat,
try subversion or just pay someone to do this?

Can anyone help me please...

Some background:

xpm is the image format used by Ethereal to store graphics (toolbar
icons etc.).

GDK uses the pixbuf loaders to load the graphics, and the one used for
xpm seems to be missing?!?

It's the first time I hear about such problems, so it's almost certainly
a problem with your machines configuration.

As I'm no unix/Linux expert, I can't give you any advise how to solve
this, sorry.

Regards, ULFL
