Sender: news@news.direct.net (News) Organization: Internet Direct Inc. -- (602) 274-0100 Date: Tue, 4 Jan 1994 09:25:02 GMT Message-ID: <CJ3M5r.Cvp@news.direct.net> Lines: 23 I am running Netbsd 0.9 on a 386-40 (4 megs) (makes you sick huh?) and am runing Xfree86 2.0. I recently compiled xv3.00a from the sources and am having a strange problem with it. It compiles fine.. with no warnings, nor errors.. But when run.. it simpy sits there.. does nothing. Ive put it in the bg, fg, killed it repeatedly and re-ran it.. but all to no avail.. no windows are made.. and seemingly no effort is even made to create one. this is boggling me. Also.. i was wondering if there was a way for me to increase my virtual screen size to something like 1600x1200 even though i do not have video memory to contain that. Is there any sort of program, or window manager that would allow me to scroll around the screen like this, without loading it all into VRAM? please help.. thanx. -- DISCLAIMER: The Above opinion is mine, And you can't have it! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- The reading of the above message Implies your agreement to the message liscencing agreement.
