I must admit that I am a novice on X. After stopping it normally,
whenever I type xinit I get the message "Waiting for X Server to 
Shut Down". Rebooting doesn't help. I assume that there must be a lock
file lying around somewhere, but have no idea where it is. Please
help!

I have a similar piece of code which successed
opening a 24 bit DirectColor visual.
The only different is that I didn't setup the 
pixmaps and I did setup the CWBackPixel and 
CWBorderPixel.

I don't know if this is what's fouling you, but its 
worth a try.

Sorry, you can't do this.  Xrn uses the Motif vertical paned widget.
There is no (official) Motif horizontal paned widget.

We are just starting to evaluate Quarterdeck's Desqview/X.  So far, not
so good.  They don't bother to mention to customers that if they want to
do more than PC peer-to-peer operations, like run applications on a Unix host, 
an additional package "Network Manager for TCP/IP" must be purchased too
(list: $200, over and above Desqview/X).  This was somewhat disappointing.
I'm not sure who they think their market is going to be...

Anyway, I was wondering if anyone else had experiences to relate on PC
based X server implementations.  I think Locus has something; PC X-sight?
Has anyone seen any recent articles reviewing and comparing various
products?

Please email me directly, and I'll gladly summarize.


Thanks (wishful thinking),

You could link X with our SENTINEL product which will produce a full

How well does X11R5 and Motif 1.2 port to Solaris 2.0?  We're looking
at a Sparc 10 as the target, so we question the need for gcc, since the
stock compiler is presumably well optimized for the hardware.  Any

I am attempting to build X11R4 under SunOS 4.1.3.  Due to user
constraints I can not go to X11R5 yet.  
The build completes with a lot of "ld: Undefined symbol" messages
in the clients.  But, the executables created seem to work.

I get a clean build (no errors) if I include "-Bstatic" as a compiler
option.  Unfortunatly this generates executables that are 3 or 4
times larger than if the "-Bstatic" option is not used.

Is it safe to use the X11R4 built without the "-Bstatic" option?
What kind, if any, problems might I run into?

Try recompiling your program using the openwindows 2 headers and libraries, everything 
should be OK then.
Forwards compatability is tricky, backwards compatability impossible :-)

If your program relies on openwindows 3 functions try statically linking to the OW 3 libraries
it might work.

Your server is trying to get managed by xdm. It sends XDMCP requests
to port #177 one some machine. Since no xdm is running,
the server keeps on trying.

Subject: X bug or feature ?
Organization: CERN, European Research Center for Particle Physics
Distribution: comp
Date: Mon, 5 Oct 1992 12:32:48 GMT

I'd like to make a "strong" X client that can detect the lost of the
connection with the X server and try to open a new one.

To do so, I trap several Unix signals (mainly SIGPIPE) and the X
errors (with XSetErrorHandler and XSetIOErrorHandler); the handling
routines just set a global variable. Before using the connection I
check it with XNoOp + XSync. But there is a problem: XSync loops
forever !!!

XSync calls GetEmptyReq, which calls _XFlush, which loops (see code
below).

Is this a bug or a feature ?
Is there another way to do it ?

Thanks for your help.

[ from XlibInt.c ]

_XFlush (dpy)
	register Display *dpy;
{
	register long size, todo;
	register int write_stat;
	register char *bufindex;

	if (dpy->flags & XlibDisplayIOError) return;

[ no IO error yet, so it will not return ]

	size = todo = dpy->bufptr - dpy->buffer;
	bufindex = dpy->bufptr = dpy->buffer;
	while (size) {
	    errno = 0;
	    write_stat = WriteToServer(dpy->fd, bufindex, (int) todo);

[ the write fails with a SIGPIPE signal, so write_stat < 0 ]

	    if (write_stat >= 0) {
		size -= write_stat;
		todo = size;
		bufindex += write_stat;
	    } else if (errno != EINTR) {
		/* Write failed! */
		/* errno set by write system call. */
		_XIOError(dpy);

[ the _XIOError just raises the XlibDisplayIOError flag and calls the handler ]
[ the IO error handler just sets a global variable, so size is still non-zero ]

	    }
	}
	dpy->last_req = (char *)&_dummy_request;
}

kterm (Kanji-terminal) and cxterm (Chinese xterm) are quite good examples

Why not just slave several monitors to the rgb-out of your cpu box? We

This is driving me totally NUTS !!

I'm running SoftPC, a PC emulator on my workstation (SPARC ELC 24Megs) in OpenWindows
version 3. The application I'm running in the emulator wants Alt-z to access the
setup screen, but when I press Alt-z nothing happens except the Front(L5) and
Open(L7) keys refuse to work anymore. This also happens without the emulator running
if I press Atl-z in a shelltool. I've checked just about everything I can think of.
'xmodmap -pk' checks out ok. My .Xdefaults file has no keymaps in it.
$OPENWINHOME/lib/openwin-sys does a few things that I'm not sure about, but nothing
that looks like keyboard stuff. The most annoying thing about this is that it works
perfectly well in OpenWindows version 2, which we have on the server too (obviously).
If I press ALt-z in the emulator it accesses the setup screen... great ... except 
SoftPC is not supposed to be run with anything less than OpenWindows 3 as "strange
errors may occur" and I don't want to risk it. We're running SunOS 4.1.2 on 24 Meg
SPARC ELC's, Openwindows3 and the window manager is 'olwm'. I've just done
'strings olwm|more' and noticed something very interesting. Alt-z seems to map to
something called 'SuspendMouseless' and Alt-Z maps to 'ResumeMouseless'.
Are these resources that I can re-map?? If so, HOW ?? Inside .Xdefaults ??
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated,
                                         Cheers,
                                               Grant.

Subject: PC-NFS and X386 enough to get going?
Summary: have PC-NFS, what else do I need?
Date: 27 Sep 92 01:07:04 GMT

	I have a SPARC and a 486 networked together via PC-NFS.
Here's what I'm wondering:

	What's the ftp-able X server for Dos? (X386?)

	Is PC-NFS 4.0 enough to get a connection going?  If not,
is there an ftp-able setup of choice among those in the know?  My
ethernet card is a 3C501.

	What I basically want to do is debug by remote displaying
x11ups to the PC (can you say "annoying pointer grabs"? :-)  I
don't need much in the way of DOS X binaries.  thanks for the info,

				Daniel
