I've installed A/UX 2.0 and X11R4 on my SE/30. I have configured it with # newconfig bnet and rebooted. When I go into the console window and type X11R4, it hangs for a few seconds, and clears the screen. This is what I get when I type out the debug.log: # X11R4 # cat debug.log Getting interface configuration: Can't assign requested address Fatal server bug! ioctl I_STR VIDEO_MAP_SLOT failed xinit: Interrupted system call (errno 4): unexpected signal 2 # Note that this time I ctrl-c'ed out, usually the errnio is 81. Anyway, does anywon have any ideas. My system is standalong. i.e., no ethernet, no devices on appletalk. marty

Semi-related topic: i have two monitors on my MacIIx, and i'm dismayed that A/UX 2.0 can't access both of them. MacOS can access both of them, and X11 can access both of them, but A/UX can't. what a waste of screen space! we tried bringing X11 up on screen :0.1 and A/UX on screen :0.0 and succeeded. however, since A/UX refuses to acknowledge screen :0.1, there was no way to move the mouse into the xdm login box! darn. marg VOICE: w:212-854-5434 h:212-932-3023 | The important thing about a battleship INTERNET: marg@cunixf.cc.columbia.edu | is that it shoots.

Well, it did turn out to be the missing gcc-include stuff. I ran fixincludes last night, and rebuilt X11R4, and this morning it worked. Thanks to all for your assistance. This conference is a real help. marty
