I may be asking the wrong questino here :) Before I reinstalled this week, xfs was always running. After reinstall, it isn't. But then, i also had xfree3.3 then, as well. I'm wondering if xfs *should* be running under a default setup. If it should, i need to fix, preferably to debian default. If not, it would seem that I need to make the adjustments to handle it (ulp :). with macbsd, i had to manually launch xfs, then xdm (never could get the rc stuff to do both of them). SPecifically what I'm observing: macbsd, no xfs, running lyx on a alpha: long freeze. above, with xfs on local machine: no freeze; system usable while xfs hogs cycles at alpha: fast :) linux, no xfs: lyx locally, no xfs, long freeze above, same lyx on alpha: no freeze, but sluggish a while. if I telnet to another machine, and launch an xapp on my display, shouldn't it be using the local font server, if any, unless told otherwise? rick -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
