I use a different server, but try " DISPLAY=powermac:0; export DISPLAY " from a telnet prompt in yur linux box. Then xterm& or what ever, speaking of MI/X i just d/led the free version, (win95) and the file0001.bin is password protected, i cant get it to install, emailed microimage about it, but no answer. I also d/l it twice incase of bad file but still same problem. the setup program after u run getme1st sees it and starts to install but never uncompressed the file? Anyhelp? tired of this win95 Xserver that only gives u 30 minute connections.
