Lines: 20 I have a question regarding running the Xserver in mono mode. I have a sun 3/470 with cgsix. I am desingnig an application that is to bbe used both for color and monochrome workstations. With the grace of my boss and his boss and so on, we in the group have color sun workstations. And some of our users(albeit poor ones) have monochrome w/s. I read the man pages of Xsun and X and it appears that the Xsun would only work in mono mode if one has cgtwo or cgfour devices. Is that the only way to do it. I have to borrow my users machine(s) to testout the product because I cannot run the Xserver in the mono mode. Would the Guru's please direct me to a solution if one exists. Thanks not only from me but also from the users whose m/c I borrow. Anshuman Razdan Sector CAD Motorola, Austin oakhill!chanakya!razdan@cs.utexas.edu
