[comp.windows.x] problems installing X on Apollo Computer

sharp@calgary.UUCP (Maurice Sharp) (02/05/88)

     I am currently trying to install X windows vs. 10 on a network of 6 
DN3000's and one DSP90 file server.  We are using SR 9.7 DOMAIN/IX.

     Everything compiled and installed.  However, when I start up X, either 
using the whole screen or just a window, two errors occur.

	1 - When xterm starts, all I get is a box with the attached handle.  The
		box appears to be redrawn continually, and nothing I do gets any
		response at all. i.e no keypresses or mouse buttons have any effect
		on anything.  This happens whether or not uwm is run

	2 - When uwm is run, I get a beep from aegis.  When I finally return to
		the main windows, I get :
			error: I/O error at Creating Unix socket

     Does anyone have any solutions to these problems ?  If so please 
email them to me (address at end).

Is your tcp server running? (is the first question that comes to mind.)
