Can you tell me which interface you are building. If you just do 
"make" then it should be the Tcl/Tk interface, unless you have 
overriden that with the --enable-ui config option.

Also, do you have any chance of running Xconq in gdb or another 
debugger, so that you can get a backtrace of the call stack?

And does your Xconq.Warnings file show anything of interest?

If you don't have gdb, you cam run Xconq in debug mode with the 
"-D" switch, and, presuming that it doesn't abort immediately you 
might be able to guestimate where the abort is happening.

Slackware? It's been awhile since I've heard that distro 
mentioned.

  Thanks,
