For those of you who've been paying attention, I finally got Mouse-X ftp'ed (from a European site). Well, I've installed it on two machines, and both have the same problem. It don't werk. After installing X (via installer), .xinitrc, (and all the fun twm files :-( I changed the permissions on the vid0, and thought everything was right. O.K. Drag X to dock, double click... ... ... Hmmm - it starts and stops all by itself! Not bad. But where's X? O.K. Open the console. Manymanymany error messages. Things like: XNextPaste : no such file or directory exec failed 2 Great - I'll copy XNextPaste (or link - I tried both) into every directory on the machine if thats what it takes... It wasn't. Now I get: exec failed 2 I've tried starting X "by hand", i.e. one file at a time - but I know abou nil about X. Could someone who's installed correctly please email me the secret word??? Thanks Thor me@fiol.uib.no
