I have visited their site and | looked for configuration documentation, but I have had no luck. | I would be interested in answers to the following questions or | pointers to docs so I may help myself. | | 1. How does one get scroll bars on the X windows? (is it possible?) The scroll bars are handled by whatever you run, not by the X server itself. (Unless you're trying to use a virtual display with a resolution higher then what your monitor/video card can handle). Do "man xterm" if you want the scroll bars for the terminal window you open | 2. How do I set the window position and size so it is pre-set | when I log back | in? That'd really depend on what Window Manager you use. | 3. I have the last statement in my .login file set to startx. | This starts X when | I log in as root, | but does not work when I log in as a user. (Yes, I have | startx in the users | .login). Seems | like it should work the same as root. | Check paths :) as root, do "echo $PATH", then do the same as a user - if they match, then it's a diff problem. If they are not identical, make them identical and try the startx again. :) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPfreeware 6.0.2i iQA/AwUBN0uLrlR8Yh25VFLEEQIzTgCbBsJJGpuONklb2q0JSYCH5IQDrmIAn3Ve LFV16jHM00PmujryR1pGh8lo =0Tgm -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
