The last 480 postings to this group didn't report the description of an error similar to the one we get when executing xinit. Calling xinit yields the following result : secundus# xinit Getting interface configuration: Operation not supported on socket sunOpenFrameBuffer: Inappropriate ioctl for device sunOpenFrameBuffer: Inappropriate ioctl for device sunOpenFrameBuffer: Inappropriate ioctl for device sunOpenFrameBuffer: Inappropriate ioctl for device Fatal server bug! no screens found XIO: fatal IO error 32 (Broken pipe) on X server "(null)" after 0 requests (0 known processed) with 0 events remaining. The connection was probably broken by a server shutdown or KillClient. secundus# What could be wrong or missed before/during the installation ? (/dev/bwtwo0 exists ?!?) Do we need 4.0.3 and gcc >1.34 ? thanks in advance Steffen -- == Steffen Seitz (seitz@infotue.uucp, +49 07071/29-5459) ===================== == Universitaet Tuebingen, Wilhelm-Schickard-Institut fuer Informatik ======== == Auf der Morgenstelle 10C, 7400 Tuebigen, West Germany =====================
