Eugene OR Lines: 43 ------------------------------------------------------------ X11R3 on HP9000/300 series running 4.3BSD (utah) with NFS. ------------------------------------------------------------ configuration file: hp300.macros compiler: gcc-1.35 and gas-1.34 I built X11R3 without too many problems and "make install" also ran to completion. Then I did the following things: - linked X to Xhp300 (server) and setuid xterm to root. - created /usr/new/lib/X11/X0screens which has topcat 0 /dev/grf0 - created /usr/new/lib/X11/X0devices which has the two lines /dev/hil1 /dev/locator However, xinit dies soon after invocation, producing the following error message. giving up. xinit: Connection refused (errno 61): unable to connect to X server A file named X110msgs gets created in /tmp and its contents are: start Wed Jun 28 16:22:59 1989 Getting interface configuration: Can't assign requested address I tried running the server but it exits immediatley, leaving the above file in /tmp. What is happening and what needs to be done? I appreciate any help, suggestions, pointers.
