I have not yet recieved my 6152 RT with color X Windows but I have seen it demonstrated and it is amazing. They had a program on there called xpic which seems more like the program xim that comes with R3 contrib distribution. Is xim the same program that IBM calls xpic? IBM also had some pictures of coke cans and robots, are these publicaly available? Xim right now only comes with two basic images, a mandrill and some ray traced stuff, IBM had about 10 different types of images. When I get my 6152 I will make some color images from my color scanner and distribute those. JonnyG. (jonnyg@umd5.umd.edu) (jonnyg@rover.umd.edu)

> Xim right now only comes with two basic images,... There are more images available and a new version of xim available from 18.80.0.45 (m9-520-1.mit.edu). > Is xim the same program that IBM calls xpic? Xim is not the same as xpic, not unless it has been renamed it. Does anyone else have any other info on xpic? Is it available somewhere?
