Hello, Anyone? I am still unable to launch any program from X running olvwm. Message in the console (vt0 for instance) is always the same: "xterm: Xt error: Can`t open display .0" But if I switch to vt1 and run: "xterm -display localhost:0", then a xterm window pop up in the X/olvwm, allowing me to launch everything else from this shell. But of course, would like to be able to do it using the menu I am building in the "openwin-menu". #cat /etc/hosts ... 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.mydomain 127.0.0.1 desktop desktop.rottava.home ... #echo $DISPLAY localhost:0 What possibily could be wrong?
