Help appreciated Date: 5 Sep 1994 04:39:08 GMT Organization: Technical University of Berlin, Germany Lines: 19 Message-ID: <34e7dc$65f@news.cs.tu-berlin.de> NNTP-Posting-Host: jet.cs.tu-berlin.de Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Hi, I downloaded the PEX-libraries/demos yesterday and tried to run the two demos that come with it (auto_box and beach_ball). With auto_box I get the error 'cannot open communication channel'. Do I have to change the configuration of X11, or enable something when I want to run PEX programs? Unfortunately I don't have the PEX user's guide and the only thing the man pages say is look into this guide. There's almost no online documentation about how to use it. I have a standard X11 configuration (FreeBSD 1.1.5, XFree86.2.1) and that worked fine all the time.
