I forgot to include the display.

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. -----Original Message----- From: fedora-list-admin@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:fedora-list-admin@xxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Marco Aurelio Torino Ribeiro Sent: Monday, December 08, 2003 1:26 PM To: Fedora-List Subject: Running Solaris apps on Linux 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. Marco Aurélio Torino Ribeiro marco.torino@xxxxxxxxx marco.torino@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
