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.
