Re: X Windows

It is complaining that it can't open the mouse device file.
You could run lsdev to see if there is an hid device driver in the kernel. If it is missing you should add it from sam.
You could check that there is a /dev/hid/mouse_000 file. You can create or recreate that file with 'insf -e'.
You should also check that you have a working mouse plugged in. ;-)

Re: X Windows

Hi,

Actually I need to start the X-windows daemon and comfigure in my IFP HP.11.23 Server. I m not using it directly. i m accessing the 11.23 X-windows from my Windows-XP Machine using X-Manager.

The X-Windows daemon is not configured in the IPF Hp-11.23 Server, how to do that.
In HP-UX 11.11 or 11.22 they are automatically configured and working fine...


rgds,
Hari

Re: X Windows

your font path is a little
messy too, but as pointed
out the problem is the mouse
device file.

This is sometimes defined in
the BCH (power up prompt /
bios equivalent). Make sure
it's defined correctly.

Also, ioscan -fnk should show
a CLAIMED mouse device..
check this and it will give
your the HW path, device file
and state.


I'm guessing it should be hil
and not hid.. but that's a
guess!

Later,
Bill
It works for me (tm)

Re: X Windows

You don't want x11start. That is trying to start an X server.

Remote logins from a PC X server will depend on dtlogin. It may already be running. You can run "/usr/dt/bin/dtconfig -e" to enable the startup of dtlogin each time you go to init 3 run-level. If the system is already at init 3 you could use "/sbin/init.d/dtlogin.rc start" to start dtlogin. If the system has been configured with a custom /etc/dt/config/Xaccess you may need to edit it to allow your system to connect to dtlogin.
