Re: XWindows



Well, what happened is that u only started the X default enviroment with 
no Apps. Try using one of the wm's (Window Managers)like: openwin or 
startx (for mwm - motif). When when u get used to the enviroment u can 
custom your .xinitrc file for the system to start with whatever apps u 
use as well as customize your desktop (with xsetroot) screen-saver etc.
