We are trying to compile X11 R4 on a SUN 3/280 serving five SUN 3/60's and when we run startx or xinit, here's what happens: The gray stipple comes up, A message comes up saying the following: Getting interface configuration: Operation not supported on socket xterm: Error 15, errno 25: Inappropriate ioctl for device waiting for X server to shut down Couldn't initialize translation to Event Then the regular prompt comes back up Our question is this; Is there a listing of error numbers and corresponding fixes for X? And, if so, where do you get this list? It's important that we get this running by this afternoon, so please RSVP!!!!!!!!!!! We're very new to X so any help anybody can give is very much appreciated. Thanks a bunch! jbentley Jon Bentley Student Assistant F. Hunter Creech Jr. Computer Lab Christopher Newport College Newport News, Virginia 23606
