Has anyone tried (successfully) to get IBM's X Windows for DOS working? This is the one where the PC basically becomes ax X terminal. When I invoke xondos and telnet to an IBM RT, I invoke aixterm &, exit and I see "socket reset" flash on the screen. Then I get an X background and nothing happens. When connecting to the Sun 3, nothing happens also. I can start an xterm remotely with the PC as a display, but after a nondeterministic amount of time, everything hangs up!!!!!!!!! i.e. ico stops and puzzle stops? /*------------Thanks in advance...---------------------------------------+ | Peter C.
