 That's your problem.  DV/X uses about 2MB of memory for display stuff
when using the 256 color server...and about a meg when in 16 color mode.
What that means for you, is that you need more actuall ram and *MUCH*
less swap from disk.

I just received my long-awaited free copy of the subject software.
I haven't tried it yet.

Have you installed the network drivers of dv/x. If so go back in and
run setup. Then try and install a network....

2 megabytes is really not enough to run dv/x. Well some would quibble
with that. Go buy more memory. 4 meg is minimum. 8 is optimal. I
upgraded to 16 and I'm really happy. If you can/don't want to increase
your memory try standard vga, 16 colors. The X server 'caches' the
video memory so that is why low color/low resolution is the best for
low memory systems...

Good Luck.

Ditto.  Does anybody know of an ODI-compliant SLIP driver?  I remember seeing
a shim to put a packet-driver interface on an ODI driver, but not the reverse.

	I got mine yesterday, almost exactly 5 count'em *FIVE* months after
I ordered it (yes I'm unhappy).  Upon perusing the manual it appears that
there is no BOOTP client support...... I have some 30+ users running with
BOOTP to configure them.  I refuse to switch, especially with most of those
users soon to be on a new subnet -- i.e. getting all new IP addresses!

	Does anyone know of a PD or 3rd party BOOTP client for the Novell
Transport?  Does the full LanWorkPlace include BOOTP client support?  (If so
does Quarterdeck plan to offer it?)  Or did I just miss the information in
that oh-so-exhaustive documentation??????

Thanks in advance for any info,
Richard
