where is `xstart'

1999-02-20 Thread homega
Hi,

I just installed WordPerfect8 and tried it as user #1:  just an error
message about the path... so, I added it to the user's path in .bash_profile
as well as to the root's path in .bash_profile;  Then I did a su, and tried
WP as root;  finally, I tried it as user #2 (though I didn't add it to the
path), and `xstart' just wouldn't start the X... so, I tried to start the X
as user #1 again... but I get:
$ startx
bash: startx: command not found

For the installation, I also installed xpm4.7 from /oldlibs, and updated
both /root/.bash_profile and /home/user#1/.bash_profile like follows:

# ~/.bash_profile: executed by bash(1) for login shells.

PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/opt/wp/wpbin


MOZILLA_HOME=/opt/netscape
export MOZILLA_HOME

umask 002


Why does the command `startx' not work?  (it is in /usr/X11R6/bin).

Please, ignore my earlier message, I put /usr/X11R6/bin in my path instead
of /usr/bin/X11 as I should.

My apologies
