Re: Xwindows in Sparc Station 5?
I had these same problems... Actually, I don't think I ever got X working under slink,
it worked right away under potato, however. /etc/X11/Xserver will tell you what server
it is trying to use.
There is no configuration, I've been told. The way I understand it is that Sun
framebuffers simply have a set resolution and colordepth, so there is nothing to
configure. Just use the correct xserver, I use Xsun24, Xsun8 is also as option, and
more common I believe.
