[comp.windows.x] Starting an X-Windows Environment using Berkeley UNIX

kes3200@sjfc.UUCP (Ken Staggers) (10/11/89)

Hello-

  A simple question from a novice user.  Is there x-windows software
available for 4.3 BSD UNIX running on a VAX 11/785?  When I say software, 
I mean the whole starter package.  I got a glimpse of x-windows this summer
as the sysops were installing in on system V at work.  My college is asking
us for advice on improvements to the system, so I am investingating this
possibility.

  So who provides the software and for how much?  What kind of terminals 
are needed and how much do they run (non-color ones)?

  Are there public domain equivalents to the x-windows software available?

Thanks for your help....please e-mail your replies!
