Hi there folks ... I have been experimenting with xdenu (Ver 2.0) - a mini version of Linux which I found on the sunsite miror here in Canberra. xdenu promises basic x-windows and simple telecommunications. In an effort to make it work on several computers I loaded the kit with straight vga features. (There are also kits for some of the go-fast cards as well as svga). After loading the software I get to the set up. Running xconfig produced soem different(?) questions. Can you help with suitable answers? 1) Font server name?? I tried fred ... but it didn't like that! 2) Font server's port number (said to be usually 7000!)?? 3) 1024 x 768 default? (I answered NO, because I wanted it to use a vga default!) 4) 72Hz refresh rate for 1024 x 768? I said NO because I didn't want that particular default! It doesn't seem to be hearing me!!) 5 to 8 Were 4 questions about my mouse - and I think I answered them correctly - with serial mouse sitting on com 1, with a link in /dev/mouse and having three buttons!! Can you help with these answers?? de Richard rjenkins@pcug.org.au
