	Hi again. More questions!!!

	1) I installed X11 on my 6150 running AIX 2.2.1 For some reason, the X
	server is left running when I exit my logon window. Thus I get a locked
	screen with grey and a cursor in it. Is there something I need to change
	in xinit? I am still setting all this up, so what I do is a fire up a
	csh logon and the last line on my .login is

	exec /usr/bin/xinit .......


	2) With the release of PS-2 AIX, is this news group going to help this 
	"new to AIX" group? Should there be a group comp.sys.aix instead of rt?
	Seems we should break by OS, not by machine (Just an opinion). The
	knowledge of the netpeople on this group could help a lot of new PS2
	AIXers, unless you are tired of answering dumb questions (like mine).

	3) Related back to #1, Is it just my imagination or does the IBM/AIX
	implementation of X-windows "leaves a lot to be desired" (sucks!!). By
	the books and other materials, seemed like X-Windows was much better and
	straight forward than what I am getting!!

	Thanks for any/all answers.
