Re: [Simh] XServers and Simh (Somewhat OT)
Ray, Clem gave some good advice about checking that you can display anything at all from a remote computer on you Ubuntu system. If you want to get the full DECwindows login experience, then Jordi's e-mail is the way to go. On the other hand, if all you want to do (at least to start with) is to display a DECterm on your Ubuntu box, then do the following: 1) Log into the system running VMS by whatever means 2) Type SET DISPLAY/CREATE/TRANSPORT=TCPIP/NODE= 3) Type CREATE/TERM This should pop up a DECterm window on the screen of your Ubuntu system. You can now run VMS commands on the remote system. I happen to have been doing this myself over the last couple of days in order to iron out the last few glitches in getting my keyboard (a real DEC LK461) to work exactly as though it was plugged into a VAXstation. Although I have described how to get a DECterm to pop up, this works equally well for any X application such as the DECwindows clock, xev, ... that is running on the VMS system.

[Simh] WAITS (Was: PDP-10 simulation: DEUNA support help needed)

How about making raw disk images? Wouldn't it be possible to convert those to something that can run in emulators? ___ Simh mailing list Simh@trailing-edge.com http://mailman.trailing-edge.com/mailman/listinfo/simh
