RE: Running Solaris apps on Linux

Thanks. I managed to start two X servers on boot modifying the /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf file and creating another /etc/X11/XF86Config file with the -depth 8 parameter.

Thank you for the help.

I forgot to include the display.

Make it X :1 -depth 8

I tried:

setenv DISPLAY :1
X -depth 8

And then, I got the following message:

Fatal server error:
Server is already active for display 0
        If this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.X0-lock
        and start again.

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


Thanks,
Marco.

You probably need to change your X configuration to use a screen depth of 8
bit color, where pseudo-colors is used.

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.
