  Rootless X Server on Mac OS X
Subject:   I get a warning

A couple of things don't seem right with my attempt at getting X Windows rootless. First of all, my XDarwin icon doesn't start anything. I have to type "/usr/X11R6/bin/XDarwinStartup -quartz" to get XDarwin up and running. I also get the warning "Warning: locale not supported by C library, locale unchanged" when I open an xterm with the the following command "xterm -geometry 80x20x80-50 -display :0.0". Any help will be appreciated.

    it means that the program will use the default English messages, date formats, etc.

    This should go away with OS X 10.1 in that internationalization is supposed to be fully supported.

    It might go away if in your .cshrc you put something like:

    unsetenv LANG

    Note that this will also turn internationalization off in programs that actually support it (via gettext/libintl).
