[comp.windows.x] X on hp-ux or system V

brasen@topaz.rutgers.edu (Brasen) (07/15/87)

	I am working on an HP-UX series 300 system with a bobcat
monitor. Due to the nature of my research, a CAD interface to X is
needed. I find that I am in the situation of haveing to port existing
BSD versions (10) of X in order to be able to alter it later. I would 
like to know if anyone has gone to the trouble of making a system V 
X-window server(HP-UX would be the best, but I would appreciate any
help).

I'm not sure of the type of monitor you have, but HP sells the X Window
System for HP-UX series 300 computers that work with many of the available
monitors.  I know this is somewhat cliche, but if you contact your local 
HP sales office I'm sure they can get you all the ordering information you 
need to get a copy.

I am interested too.  I run HP-UX on an 840.  Please either email to me
also or perhaps post to the net.

Thanx

HP obviously has a commitment to X and Unix and its HPPA (Spectrum)
hardware such as your HP 9000/840.  I recommend that you contact
your local HP sales rep for some news.
