I wish. I did the exact same things, without pageedit starting.
Up to now.
But last time i checked, it STARTED!!

You didn't by chance wave magic hands, or something?

The usual, now as before, "Executing external XHTML editor".

Well, i dont rightly know; methinks before there was nothing when calling pageedit.
Now, it's a text block after starting sigil like
Code:
Info: 

GL Type: desktop
...
  *  in-process-gpu  
  *  use-gl desktop
and again the same, when calling for pageedit.

6.4.2, they say.

/usr/local/bin/pageedit
But, as i said, now it works, don't know why not before.
Curiouser and curiouser, said Alice.
