Hello,
Here in the office I have FrameMaker 6 installed on all Solaris
workstations. I want to log to one of them from my local RH PC, run
FrameMaker on the workstation and see/use it on my Linux screen.
I have tried telnet, rlogin, etc... The DISPLAY variable
: 72x72
but still no luck...
Other ideas?
TIA, Marco
FYI, this is the conclusion of the story. Any comment/explanation/
further trick arer appreciated, as I confess I don't understand
completely why the solution below works.
It works, however.
Thanks to everybody.

internally maps everything to 24 bit then renders it out in

Marco seems to be using gdm which (by default) restarts the X server.

hi...
I having problems with bb and SDL library( http://www.libsdl.org ).
When I run some SDL apps in fullscreen mode, Blackbox put a decorated blank
window over the app, covering it almost totally (See ASCII ART below).
When not in fullscreen It works though. Also works (fullscreen) with others
Hi, when Blackbox is ended, the .blackboxrc file gets particulary new
written. Edit the .blackboxrc after you've ended your blackbox-session or
use the configuraton option in your menu. If this option is not present
insert

into your menu-file
