What did (or didn't) I do wrong?

Type it in EXACTLY as shown:

	setenv DISPLAY=:1
	X -- -depth 8
	startkde

You forgot the "=" in "DISPLAY=:1".

For an individual application, you can startup a new X screen if needed. I did the following:
export DISPLAY=:1
X -- -depth 8
startkde
then I could change to virtual terminal 8. /

Hi, Folks!


I know this may be a little off-topic, but I am trying to run some Solaris apps on a Linux workstation, and the colors are displayed incorrectle in some of them.

        When I run the same apps from Windows PCs (using a program
    called X-Win, to "emulate" an X-Server in Windows), I have to
    check an option called "pseudo-colors" so that the colors display
    correctly.

        Does anybody know where can I configure Linux to fix that?
    I've already tried to recompile the kernel and to change some
    options of XFree86, but none of these succeeded.

        If anyone has already ran into this problem and could help me,
    I would be very grateful.
    /
