[comp.windows.x] More problems w/ X11R3 Apollo...

cdaf@iuvax.cs.indiana.edu (Charles Daffinger) (05/14/89)

Ok.  First, thanks to those who responded to my post of 2 days ago...

The files on which the compiler was bombing compiled fine without the
-O flag.  

To recap, I'm running on an Apollo DN550, SR9.7.

Now the new problem...  When I first fired up X, I got the background
pattern, and then the X cursor, though the cursor seemed a bit
washed...  The xterm window never came up.  Although I could move
the cursor, none of the mouse buttons responded, nor any of the
keyboard.  I finally rebooted the machine to get out.  (this machine is
stand-alone... no ring.  I have /sys/tcp/tcp_server -n running.)

After rebooting, I tried the same thing again, and got the messages...

waiting for X server to begin accepting connections .......giving up.
xinit:  I/O error (errno 5):  unable to connect to X server

Subsequant tries again produce the latter result.  I was never able to
get the X background again.

Any experience with this problem?  Any suggestions?  THis is my first
time installing X, so these could have some simple solutions.  THanks,
