[comp.windows.x] Can't get X11R2/3 running on /dev/bwtwo0

jepeway@alphard.cs.utk.edu (Chris Jepeway) (11/11/88)

I'm having the devil of a time getting X to run on the monochrome
frame buffer of a color Sun 3/60 running Sun O/S 3.5.  I want to
do this so I can give the color frame buffer to suntools to
run some color applications like magic under it.  I've applied
the official patches of 1 Nov that add the -mono switch to the
R3 Sun server.  Here are some of the various invocations I've tried:

xinit -- -mono
xinit -- -dev /dev/bwtwo0
xinit -- -dev /dev/bwtwo0 -mono
xinit -- -dev /dev/bwtwo0 :0.1
xinit -- -dev /dev/bwtwo0 :0.1 -mono
	o
	o
	o

Note that suntools is NOT running when I've tried these commands,
nor have there been any selection_svcs creeping around in the background.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
