Which environment did you choose? In 10.20 I must assume it is VUE, not CDE.

VUE has faded on me since we first moved to CDE and now I'm on KDE (Linux), but I'm sure there is a log file other than /etc/rc.log that states the reason for the core dump.

And then of course you have the core file, from which you can deduce what program crashed.

And /usr/contrib/bin/X11/startx is a shell script, so starting it with

$ sh -vx /usr/contrib/bin/X11/startx

Will show you the commands as they are executed, and give you a good clue where what fails.

HI
i already check there is no error in /etc/rc.log

also if there is any error it will show at the time of bootup, when i am booting up this station its not showing any eroror, not sure what is the issue.

Re: hpux 10.20 can not get GUI

that's exactly what I said. The error will probably not show up in /etc/rc.log

Try that sh -vx command line and see where it stops
