forward X output?

[Marcelo Yezzi]

This is a reply to both Jeff and Alex.

Jeff: is SharedX a licensed product? I couldn't find a place in HP's web site were I can get it?

Alex: I tried using hpterm and this is what I get
"hpterm: display "10.0.1.229:0.0" is not authorized to take control of /dev/console"

[Alex Glennie]

SharedX is a licensed product ... delivered on the apps CD's as part of the Mpower//Web product bundle , HP has produced a similar free product : HPVC but I'm not sure it will meet your needs : see http://www.software.hp.com/cgi-bin/swdepot_parser.cgi/cgi/displayProductInfo.pl?productNumber=B7580AA

looking at hpterm & dtterm's -C option and the error you reported ... looks like for it to work it needs to be on the local Xserver DISPLAY which would otherwise act as the local console ie remote Xsessions are unable to make use of it .... xconsole appears to be similar.

This may work edit the syslog.conf

change: *.alert /dev/console to: *.alert /usr/adm/log_file

also it would seem that dtterm -C may work but I've been able to work out how wrt remote displays ..perhaps changing the perms on /dev/console ? anyone else discovered how to do this ?

[Alex Glennie]

dtterm -C works via reflectionX for me if the ownership of /dev/console = the same as the user who has logged into CDE ..... give it a go ....goodluck.

ps so I guess you *may* need to make a script to check or set this first .....

Maybe I wasn't clear enough. I don't need error logs in another dispay. That's why I can't use xconsole (I already tried that). I need graphics display. This is: the app apparently doesn't use the DISPLAY variable. Instead, it talks directly to the graphics card. HPVC works when sharing that app. The problem is, when that app launches another one (the user click on a button in the main screen) I loose control of the newly created window.
Maybe SharedX would help, but I can't but without trying. I didn't check your link yet.
Thanks a lot for your time.
