- All Cub'X-Window units shipped today work on NeXTstep 3.0.
- If you have the previous version of Cub'X-Window for NS2.x, you can
- contact us and we will send you an upgrade (free-of-charge).
- This upgrade contains modification of a Script file, which you can also do
- by yourself, as described below :
-
- 1 - Log in as root.
- 2 - Open CubXWindow.app
- 3 - In the Script directory, edit Xinstall.script
- This script checks which version of NeXtstep is running on the NeXT
- computer. If it does not recognize the number, it displays a panel
- "Cub'X-Window doesn't support system release x".
- All you need to do is include version number 3.0 in the Xinstall. script
- file.
- 4 - In the file Xinstall.script, replace numbers 2,1;2,2... by the number
- 3.0 :
-
- #
- # First get the system version result is in $sysver
- #
- sysver=`/usr/bin/hostinfo | /bin/awk '/NeXT Mach/ { print substr($3,0,3)
- }'`
- if ( /bin/test $sysver != "3.0" ) then
- /bin/echo This version of Cub\'x Window doesn\'t support system release
- $sysver
- exit
- fi
- export sysver
- 5 - Save the modified Xinstall.script
- 6 - Rebuild Cub'X-Window and reboot the computer.
