How to configure Xorg and fvwm on x86 Solaris 10 update 10?
I've installed Solaris 10 on P4 machine but, I don't like the current desktop e.g. CDE & JDS so I'd like to replace these with fvwm that comes from sunfreeware packages.
It's on /opt/sfw.
Please give me the steps to configure and run Xorg & fvwm as we do on Linux (with other wms).

I am using Xorg server with Solaris 10.
After unnormal poweroff dtlogin tells: "The X-server can not be started on display :0"
I am absolutelly sure it is because there is still a X-lock file from the previouse X-session somewhere, but I do not know where is it located in Solaris! :confused: (2 Replies)

I know that Sun make s a version of Solaris for Sparc platforms and also an x86 (Intel/AMD) release of Solaris. Can an application that runs on Solaris/Sparc also run on a PC running the x86 release of Solaris? Would a different release be required or any re-compling of the application?

USAGE
Here are some real life usages.
Checks for xft support:
if fvwm-config --supports-xft;
then echo 1; else echo 0; fi
fvwm-themes package checks for the correct fvwm version installed using:
fvwm-config --version
and tries to use the same installation directories:
fvwm-config --bindir --mandir --fvwm-datadir
A way to find the full path to the fvwm executable:
echo `fvwm-config --bindir`/`fvwm-config --fvwm-exe`
A way to start modules in perl:
use lib `fvwm-config -p | tr -d '0`;
use FVWM::Module;
For a more human readable output, try:
fvwm-config --info
