Dear Sir,

I met a problem. I could not display the image on my screen. What I did is to 
try the example 1 in the cantata system on my machine (tyr.iesd.auc.dk) by use 
of the machine (castello.vision.auc.dk). The following is the procedure I took.

1)xhost +castello.vision.auc.dk ---on my machine tyr.iesd.auc.dk

2)rlogin rlogin castello.vision.auc.dk 

2)export DISPLAY=tyr.iesd.auc.dk:0.0 ---on castello.vision.auc.dk

3)cantata -restore $KHOROS_HOME/repos/workspace/examples/example1.Z
 (The cantata master form appears on my screen with the example 1, which is to 
  enhance a dim image.)

and then

4)I pressed the RUN action button, and I tried to display the input and output
  images on my screen, and I got the messages from the system:
  .(0_warm) Can only display BYTE image. Do you wish to convert the image? ... 
    the image will be normalized to 255. note: if ..... 
    (I clicked the Cont button)
  .(1_warn) Image is a byte image, but this terminal can only display 
   monochrome images. Do you wish to dither the image?
   (if I press the "Stop", an error message is given "Unable to display image";
    if I press the "Cont", the system goes down as well as our X windows 
    OpenWindows)
Note that  the version of X windows is OpenWindows;
           the machine is Sun 4;
           the Operating System is UNIX.

I would like to know the problem, perhaps it is not a bug in cantata but a
bug in OpenWindows. Anyway, I appreciate your response about my problem.
I also would like to be a member of the Khoros mailing list.



Many Thanks & Best Regards.

hi,

i think it is a problem of the two X-implementations and not of the 
Khoros-System.

we have the same problem with an animation tool (xgrasp) displaying it
from unix to vax/vms. The X-System on the VAX crashes.

using KHOROS on a unix-station and displaying the results to
Dec-Windows with a DXWM will loose all that little "Warning-Boxes" like
"Do you wish to convert the image? ...".

maybe another Windows-Manager can solve your problem ...
