> I'm running linux mint 9 and xastir, 
> 
> I haven't had any issues with the install setup and saving config. 
> Yes I rebooted the system too and it came right up.? 
> 
> I'm also running ax25 with 2 radio ports assigned along with Digi_ned. ?
> 
> The only issue I have seen is with clicking on the map. it locks my mouse on the map boundries and I can't get out of it except to remote in from another machine and do a shutdown. 
> as long as I dont click on the map my I-Gate is functional. ?

This is a bug  in the 1.7.5 X server that is fixed in later versions of the
server.  There is a workaround in Xastir CVS that will let Xastir work with
this broken version of X.
