I have a problem with paging spaces. I want to close my existing paging space and open a new one. Actually my aim is reducing the on one of the hard disks. I creared 64 MB paging space on the second drive and activated it. Using smit I turned off the auto switch for the old paging space. When I restart the system, system comes up with 2 paging spaces (total 128 MB) and I cannot remove the old one because I get the message:Paging space ... is active. Close the filesystem. The problem is I cannot close it once it is activated. I also changed the rc file from swapon -a to swapon name Still the system activates both spaces. Is there another database somewhere which is checked by the sytem at the startup. My second question is our talk deamon is not working. We uncomented necassary lines from /etc/services and /etc/inetd.conf , but any tiem we write talk ...@..., we get an error message as talk: ntalk/udp: Service is not registered. I want to eliminate the resize borders around some of the clients like clock, xbiff, xload, xcalc ... . I look through the mwm defaults but cannot find the correct setting. Is this elimination of resize borders possible, if so what should I chande in .mwmrc file When I compile xtex client from mit I get an linker error as .htonl (unresolved symbol) but the info gives the place of the module as libbsd. When I run ar tv /lib/libbsd.a I get only shr.o as the contest. How should I run cc such that it can resolve the libs correctly. Any ideas welcome, thank you very much.

An IBM employee unofficially told me that I was screwed as of the 3002 release, but that future releases might fix this. The best I can tell is that somewhere in the deep depths of whatever AIX uses for a kernal, /dev/hd6 is activated. -- J.

Mwm*XClock.clientDecoration:all|none|border|maximize|minimize|resizeh|menu|title for more client resources search for "clientdecoration" in info and checkout: AIXwindows Window Management Client Specific Resource Set -- sanders@peyote.cactus.org First rule of software: Throw the first one away. and so on...
