From: chans@cs.curtin.edu.au (Sean Chan) Subject: XFree-1.1 installation questions... Date: 7 Nov 1992 03:51:34 GMT
Gidday all,
I recently got XFree 1.1 and installed it, but have a few questions on
"fine tuning" it. After the installation, I noticed that it placed all
it's man pages in /usr/X386/man, etc. I assume normal "man" wouldn't be
able to find it. So, I ran X and tried "xman". In the directory, all the
xcommands were there, but the minute I clicked on a (actually *ANY*) X
related command, it reformats the page and displays NOTHING!! It appears
that "xman" can't find the /usr/X386/man directory. Anyone has any
suggestions??
Another minor problem...I run X in colour. How do I change the
background or "desktop" (as MS-Win would put it) to a colour of my
choice. At the moment, it's sorta grey - the same as X386mono, with the
exception of the coloured borders of "login", "xterm", and "xclock".
Thanks in advance...
Sean
