Hi,

I have *partially* solved the problem I posted a couple of weeks ago, by
recompiling wishpqx from the source. The binary which came with the newbie
distribution was giving a segmentation fault - possibly because I am running
X11R6 ...

Anyway, I now get the pgbrowse box up, and 'Connecting to localhost ...', but
it immediately dies. Postmaster *is* running. I am using Linux 1.1.59 and
tcl/tk, all from the Slackware 2.1.0 distribution.

It is probably something quite simple, but I know very little about tcl/tk ...
the errors that appear on stdout are below.

Thanks in advance for any help!
