AW: Thin-X-Client-Laptop



Hi Cajus,
thanks for your hints - but it did not work - what did I do wrong?

* On the PC I checked /etc/X11/xdm/Xaccess there was a "*"
* On the PC I started xdm (login window)
* On the Laptop I started X with "X -query 192.168.0.1"
* On the Laptop I had the x-cursor only
* After C-A-backspace on the laptop I saw the message "XDM: too many retransmissions"
