Hi all, well I resurected my MDK 8.2 Install here is what I found:
under /etc/rc.d/init.d/xfs there needs to be some changes made. Under the option start it has a -1 for a port take that option out, or replace the -1 with a 7100 (or any other port you may wish to use). In order for local X to still work you need to change the FontPath setting in your XF86Config (or XF86Config-4) file from a -1 to the port you specified in the startupscript. (I think you need to change the unix to TCP or UDP, not sure here try man XF86Config or do a search on google). under /etc/X11/fs/config you may need to change some options about the maximum clients and the clone funtion (should be described). Also a man xfs gives a little info. Mandrake has the xfs obtion hard coded into their startupscript that is why there are no options in the config file. Hope this will help Patrick Am Mon, 2003-01-27 um 10.47 schrieb surleau: > > > > > As some of you told me, it was a font server problem. > > > > > > > > > > XFree86_xfs is installed as a RPM > > > > > > > > > > "service xfs status" says that the service is running. > > > > > But in fact no server is running.
