Client applications, of course. Start X with an xterm connected to it. If I recall, the xinit command starts X and runs an xterm by default, unless it can find proper xinitrc-type files. Inside the xterm, the DISPLAY variable will be properly set, so you should be able to run more programs (you probably want to background them). To kill X, exit the xterm. -- Andy Goth | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://ioioio.net/ End communication. _______________________________________________ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
