Hello,
I installed the X386 package last night to my system running sVr4, and
ran into some problems. I would appreciate if anyone can help me out.
1) The server came up ok, but xterm and twm couldn't open the display.
I used the default node name "amnesia". Does anyone know what the problem
might be? This is what happened.
/ # startx (or xinit)
"Setting TCP SO_DONTLINGER: Option not supported by protocol."
The background bitmap came up with mouse cursor movable
That's it.
If I switched to another VT, then X died with message "unable to open display
unix:0" in /.xerrors. I tried setting DISPLAY to "amnesia:0" but got similar
results. What's wrong here?
2) I then tried to rename the system name to "unix". sysadm did that w/o
any problems. I then rebooted the machine. However, upon rebooting, the init
process displayed the messages:
svc_create_statd: warning: no well known address for statd on transport ticlts
svc_create: Bad file number
unable to create(NLM_PROG, NLM_VERS) for netpath.
I then put "unix" (and later "unix:0") in /etc/X0.hosts and fired up X.
Still no luck.
Thanks in advance for any help.
