XSTM, no more graphical MAP

For some reason my XSTM will only display the readout in text mode, when I go into the settings and uncheck the show in text mode box then press OK it still displays in text.

Any idea's why this is happeneing? It was working fine a week ago.

Gordon,

Is your DISPLAY variable set? "echo $DISPLAY"

This is always the DISPLAY variable.

It should be set as follows:

DISPLAY=IP_address_of_connecting_workstation:0.0

example

DISPLAY=192.168.0.15:0.0
export DISPLAY

Then it will work unless your X font server is turned off

/etc/rc.config.d/xfs

It will be obvious if there is a problem there.

Re: XSTM, no more graphical MAP

If I assume that you are actually using an X server and that DISPLAY is properly set and exported then you need to look at 2 other things: 1) Under Map->Options, is the Xstm text map box checked? If so, you will always get a text-based version of the map. 2) Have you added new devices so that the total exceeds 254 devices? If so, only text-based maps are available.
If it ain't broke, I can fix that.
