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.
