Getting V 5A and using the setuid did the trick. I also grabbed a copy of patch from uunet, and got it to compile with a little tweaking (-bsd option for compiling). Once again I seem to have a 'right's' problem... OK, I have this real 'nifty' :-) X thing up and running... for root. When I try to run it as anything else I get: Fatal server bug! no screens found Everyone has read permission for all the X files, but only root has write permission, so I suspect that it's either that, or that other users can't grab control of the screen like root can (if that's at all possible). Help with this problem, as well as any documentation for Xnext would be appreciated (I got none that I know of). I hear that there's a 'hot-key' for switching 'tween NextStep and X? If so, what is it? Thanks again, Kurt
