I've downloaded and installed the 1.2 X distribution (Scott Reynolds', from
8 October), but I can't get it to work on my LC3 (1.2 release, GENERICSBC-1
kernel). I've done the following set-up:
. gunzip and untar all 3 files
. decompress a whole bunch of fonts
. done "ldconfig /usr/X11R6/lib"
However, if I type "xinit", I get:
<screen goes white>
Screen 0 at 0x41ad000, 640 by 480, rowB 80, fbbase 0xbf5000.
Then a minute or two later:
X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).
<cursor comes back>
Can anybody help? On a (possibly) related note - there's been some traffic
recently about the best kernel for the LC3. I've had no trouble from this
one in approx. 3 months, but are there exciting new features that I'm
missing? (Why leave working software alone when you can upgrade?!)
Thanks (in advance) for any help.
