Hello,
I have two questions for people running sVr4 and/or X386.
1) I installed X386 binary (for R4) last night. The server came up ok, but
xterm and twm couldn't open the display. I used the default node name
"amnesia". Does anyone know what the problem might be? This is what happened.
/ # startx (or xinit)
"Setting TCP SO_DONTLINGER: Option not supported by protocol."
The background bitmap came up with mouse cursor movable
That's it.
If I switched to another VT, then X died with message "unable to open display
unix:0" in /.xerrors. I tried setting DISPLAY to "amnesia:0" but got similar
results. What's wrong here? BTW, do I still have to modify kernel params as
was done in the install.sh script?
2) I then tried to rename the system name to "unix". sysadm did that w/o
any problems. I then rebooted the machine. However, upon rebooting, the init
process displayed the messages:
svc_create_statd: warning: no well known address for statd on transport ticlts
svc_create: Bad file number
unable to create(NLM_PROG, NLM_VERS) for netpath.
Does anyone know how to fix it? Any suggestions, Dell?
I then put "unix" (and later "unix:0") in /etc/X0.hosts and fired up X.
Still no luck.
I saw mentioning of AT&T sVr4.0.3. Can anyone tell us the major bug fixes
or new features?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Try localhost:0, I *think* that's what I'm running, but I just pulled some boards out of the V.4 box to test something. -- bill davidsen - davidsen@sixhub.uucp (uunet!crdgw1!sixhub!davidsen) sysop *IX BBS and Public Access UNIX moderator of comp.binaries.ibm.pc and 80386 mailing list "Stupidity, like virtue, is its own reward" -me
