Two cases of particular note: running /usr/openwin/bin/perfmeter (I believe), I lose keyboard control when I exit the program. This can be solved by remotely logging in and killing the app, or by logging in to my linux box and killing X. running wabi, I also lost control of the keyboard -- here I had to reboot linux to regain a usable keyboard. If it's of interest, the way I'm bringing up x is: in a random terminal session under linux: nohup X :1 & xterm -display :1 In the resulting xterm window: xhost +solarisboxname telnet solarisboxname [and log in] myopenwin [then shut down that xterm] The script myopenwin is basically the openwin script from solaris canabalized for just the environmental variable settings (and DISPLAY defaults to server :1 on my machine) -- and instead of running startx, it merely runs olwm. [If I can get linux to work stably, >>then<< I'll see about getting xdm up on the solaris box.] -- Raul ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Message sent: From: iwj10@thor.cam.ac.uk (Ian Jackson) To: Raul Miller Subject: Bug#1292: Acknowledgement (was: X locks up) In-Reply-To: <199508291721.NAA16591@magenta.com> References: <199508291721.NAA16591@magenta.com> Thank you for the problem report you have sent regarding Debian GNU/Linux.
