Lines: 28 I am currently trying to install X windows vs. 10 on a network of 6 DN3000's and one DSP90 file server. We are using SR 9.7 DOMAIN/IX. Everything compiled and installed. However, when I start up X, either using the whole screen or just a window, two errors occur. 1 - When xterm starts, all I get is a box with the attached handle. The box appears to be redrawn continually, and nothing I do gets any response at all. i.e no keypresses or mouse buttons have any effect on anything. This happens whether or not uwm is run 2 - When uwm is run, I get a beep from aegis. When I finally return to the main windows, I get : error: I/O error at Creating Unix socket Does anyone have any solutions to these problems ? If so please email them to me (address at end).
