I am the (usually) happy owner of an A3000UX.

I have to admit that I have very little experience with UNIX, but I'm giving
it my best shot.

My problem is this:

I can't get X to run!  I've run oladduser to set up my account to use
Open Look.  I've run olinit to (supposedly) set up Open Look.  I type

/usr/X/bin/X

and get the X screen (complete with pointer), but no windows open up on it!
I have to log on as root on another console to kill the process.  What am I
doing wrong?

Anyone?  Anyone?

AMIX needs an adduser script!  Editing the password file is for the birds!
