From: Jehangir K. Parvereshi <jp> I am currently working on a bus-oriented Graphics Communication Device (GCD), which is fully customized to provide high-resolution graphics capability as a visual aid for the deaf community. My user-interface is such that I need a X window manager, but I am not sure if my architecture is oriented to support it. The GCD is based on a 68000 microprocessor, which is the only system controller on the bus. It has 64K bytes of display memory, which can store up to 2 pages of 640 X 400 X 1 pixel data. There is no disk sub-system supported by the GCD, but instead a battery backed-up read/write memory of 128K bytes is provided. The design is highly modular, and there is a provision for expansion of system resources as required by the application. Has anyone out there come across such application or has any idea whether a X window manager will run on my system, please let me know. I will really appreciate this help from anybody. Thanks, Jehangir Parvereshi ------------------------------------------------------------------ electronic mail: jp@tut.cis.ohio-state.edu jp@ohio-state.arpa US mail: 240 Hitchcock Hall, Dept. of Engineering Graphics 2070 Neil Avenue Columbus, Ohio 43210 Voice: (614)292-2896 (office) (614)421-7618 (home) ___________________________________________________________________
