HELP (I'm new to Ultrix and DECwindows) System is a VAXstation II/GPX I've just upgraded to Ultrix v3.1/ UWS 2.1 I copied .Xdefaults from /usr/skel/.Xdefaults I've got no other applications running. I can create a UE window, but not a terminal window - I get a starting process "dxterm" then immediately an exit process message. I was running UWS 2.0 with no problems. From /tmp/sm714.errs: X Toolkit Warning: Cannot allocate colormap entry for "White" X Toolkit Warning: Cannot allocate colormap entry for "Black" X Toolkit Warning: Cannot allocate colormap entry for "wheat" X Toolkit Warning: Cannot allocate colormap entry for "black" X Protocol error detected by server: integer parameter out of range Failed request major op code 91 X_QueryColors Failed request minor op code 0 (if applicable) ResourceID 0x151f88 in failed request (if applicable) Serial number of failed request 52 Current serial number in output stream 52 any guesses? ellen

Re: .0 I assume the /tmp/sm717.errs messages were for errors encountered by the session manager rather than by dxterm. I'm not sure why dxterm would be failing, especially since it worked for you in UWS V2.0. Did the size of your swap file change when you upgraded to Ultrix V3.1? -- Bob | |||||

Your rgb files are corrupt. cd /usr/lib/X11 cp /dev/null rgb.dir cp /dev/null rgb.pag rgb <rgb.txt reboot or kill/restart your server | |||||

or your upgrade was not properly done.
Read the UWS 2.1 release notes carefully.
