Hi
I am overwhelmed by the response of all those netters who have
contributed one way or another in helping me to solve the above
problem. Thanks again guys!
Well I would like to share with the rest of you how the above
problems are solved. The first if the PEX error... it turns out
that the SLS package does not include the PEX package. I have to
download it from the the ftp site and extract it into the proper
directory. The second problem is caused by my ignorant. I have
to create a swap partition (8M) and this solve the problem of
Fontpath not valid.
I am now happily exploring the openwin. One thing bothers me
though ... is it possible to configure the X-window to 'shrink'
to just occupy the whole screen but not more? Hate to keep
panning up and down when playing xmahjohn.
Nam.
