[comp.unix.sysv386] ESIX: XWindows and no Ethernet-Card ?

heiko@uwesa.hanse.de (Heiko Weber jun.) (01/20/91)

Hello anyone !

I have a problem with my ESIX X-windows, (ESIX Version 5.3.2 Rev. D). After
the installation of TCP/IP, X11 r3, (included xconfig: Xhrc, ser. mouse) I 
get the following message after starting X with xinit :

   giving up.
   xinit: Interrupted system call (errno 4): unable to connect to X server

I think, it is not a problem with the permissions, because as "root" 
there are no differences. Maybe, the problem is, that I have no ethernet-
card installed, but during the boot, /etc/netdaemon prints the following
messages, I assume, the pseudo pln-driver work's fine.

netdaemon: Entry
netdaemon: Open /dev/lan0
netdaemon: Open of /dev/lan0 failed
netdaemon: Open /dev/lan1
netdaemon: Open of /dev/lan1 failed
netdaemon: Use pseudo LAN PLN_DRIVER
netdaemon: Open /dev/ip0
netdaemon: Open /dev/ip1
netdaemon: Open /dev/clnmux
netdaemon: Open /dev/clnudpm
netdaemon: I_PUSH ippln on /dev/lan0
netdaemon: I_LINK /dev/lan0 under /dev/ip0 
netdaemon: I_PUSH tcp on /dev/ip0
netdaemon: I_LINK /dev/ip0 under /dev/clnmux 
netdaemon: I_PUSH udp on /dev/ip1
netdaemon: I_LINK /dev/ip1 under /dev/clnudpm 
netdaemon: : Streams chain completed.

any idea ?

I don't know about the netdaemon messages you described -- but the xinit
problem means you need to run '/usr/bin/X11/xconfig' (as root).
