Thanks for all the help regarding getting X working.
I am pleased to say that the problems seem to be mine and following the
advice to
- include the x binaries path in my $path
- use startx or xdm
- chown root:wheel /usr/X11R6.1/bin/Xarm-27
- chmod 4755 /usr/X11R6.1/bin/Xarm-27
things seem to work fine.
I was getting a warning about the L1 pages but these have disappeared
by increasing the number of processes to 52 in the !btRiscBSD.
I downloaded xv and xv-png from the sets and xv works for me but
xv-png does not.
More questions
-------- question CD ROM
Can someone advise me on how to detect my CR-ROM drive?
RiscPC600 IDE harddrive and Essox Octopus (8X) IDE ATAPI CDROM
Upgraded to SA/RO 3.7.
Using kernel voy/5328 at the moment.
I tried going to /dev and
doing a ./MAKEDEV
and typeing
in the mknod commands in the faq
cd /dev
mknod acd0a b 20 0
mknod acd0c b 20 2
mknod racd0a c 20 0
mknod racd0c c 20 2
>From RiscBSD 1.2 onwards /dev/MAKEDEV will support makeing the acd devices
so you can use
cd /dev
/MAKEDEV acd0
What device should I see in the boot sequence if the CD ROM is
detected?
-------- question Angband
Has anyone got Angband 2.8.1 to work?
It compiles fine but I am getting a problem with the program
reading or writing one of its data files.
I think I have the file permissions set appropriately and the
relevant path seems to be ok.
