Re: Trying to start X windows on the console
export DISPLAY in server machine as,
# export DISPLAY=
start application in server with same session where you set DISPLAY environment variable.
# application &
Now application will be started in your client terminal itself.

Re: Trying to start X windows on the console
edit /etc/profile as,
export DISPLAY=$(getip `who -mu | awk '{ print $NF }'`):0.0
and save it.
Execution of application in server side will use client side x-windows application.

Re: Trying to start X windows on the console
There must be a setting somewhere that says my console (graphics card) is set to a terminal device. I need to change this to be a hpterm etc..
root@ovo02:/etc>echo $DISPLAY
10.12.68.37:10.0
root@ovo02:/etc>echo $TERM
xterm

Re: Trying to start X windows on the console
You have to do what Alex said. Also you have to configure your Display. Start SAM, then go to Display -> Monitor Configuration.
Select appropriate connector and then Action ->Modify monitor type and choose the proposed values. You can test it currently on the Display with Test monitor type.
Notice that on restart or start up of the server the Monitor and mouse should be connected to the server. If the server finds that they are missing it puts # at the beginig of the last line in /etc/dt/config/Xservers,
* Local local@console /usr/bin/X11/X :0
