X-Server does not start

Since the new release 1.7.63 the connection to the X-server seems to
work incorrectly.

In Version 1.7.62 everything was function properly.

I had the same problem, and a fix was already mentioned (though it
seemed to me to have drawbacks, also discussed). The fix is to set:

LANG=en_US.UTF-8

(or perhaps differently for you, since I see you are from Berlin!)

Someone also pointed out that some utilities acted differently
between en_US.UTF-8 and en_us.UTF-8 ...

If you look over messages from the last couple of days you will
see some of this.

Best wishes -- Eliot Moss
