Description

Hello, I'm using awesome and putting it in the xinitrc will make X11 start but never show up the window manager(replacing it with quartz-wm works). I tried recompiling it(which is necessary anyway since libpng changed) but no luck.

The problem only occurs with rc 2 and rc3. Reinstalling rc1 and recompiling awesome fixes the issue.

I tried running startx from terminal to see if there is any interesting errors showing up but nothing. The console.log doesn't look any different from the rc1 one either.

Regards, Reza

It works for me using awesome from Macports.

Please ask in the xquartz-dev list if you need further assistance.
