HELP!  I downloaded the X stuff from cunixf.cc.columbia.edu.  This
is the XNext-Release2.0.tar.Z stuff.  There is no 'xinit' command.

When I start the X (by su'ing to root and manually issuing the
command from Terminal) I get a blank X screen with a pointer which
just sits there.  What do I need to do in order to setup the initial
apps (a couple xterms, xclock, etc.)?  Has anyone done this before?
What is your setup like?


Please email to vrr@cbnewsj.att.com


Thanks,
Veenu


BTW:  Urgent - please hurry!  Thanks :)
