I got an X terminal (NCD) and a telebit (world blazer 14400) modem.

I got a unix account with netcom company.

when i switch on the terminal, after doing it's mem testing,
i am getting an x-window. right now, my mouse is ineffective.
is it because i don't have .Xdefaults file.

how can i get multiple windows and also various other window functions
like move, changing size, iconifying etc.

i don't have manual for my NCD X-terminal.

I sincerely appreciate if somebody can help.

thanks,

You probably don't have the software either.

Two things needed, xremote roms in the ncd, and xremoteinit on netcom.
I don't know if netcom has any x, I'd think not. Besides, you'd
need the specific software ncd provides with their xterminals
to run it over a dialup.

Try ftp.telebit.com, there's an application note describing
in a bit more detail using an ncd xterm.
