Hi, I have recently installed epoch on our DECstation 5000/240, and am trying to persuade others to use epoch as well. The ideal way to ease the transition seemed to be to add some menus. The epoch FAQ explains how menus can be made using motif and a program called xse (X send event). I managed to get the menus done, but on the DECstation itself nothing happens.... If I use an old SUN 3/50, with only X running on the SUN and the window manager mwm running on the DECstation, the menus work! Both systems are definitely using exactly the same window manager and the same startup files. So what's different on the DEC? The Version of X running on the Suns is still X11R4 and on the DEC we've installed X11R5, but I would have thought that these are backward compatible. If somebody has had this problem before, and knows how to fix it, please send me a mail. Oh, and if somebody knows how to get motif to put up menus anywhere in the window with e.g. <Shift><Button1>, instead of only on the frame, I would appreciate a hint! Thanks, Adriaan -- -- *************************************************************************** * Adriaan Joubert * Janet : adriaan@uk.ac.qmw.dcs * * London Parallel * Internet : adriaan@dcs.qmw.ac.uk * * Applications Centre * * * QMW University of London * Fax : +44-81-981 9803 * * Mile End Road * Telephone : +44-71-975 5168 * * London E1 4NS * * * United Kingdom * * ***************************************************************************
