- Yes, one small step :-)
-
- On all systems that run OW3, as root, run the following:
-
- setenv OPENWINHOME /usr/openwin
- $OPENWINHOME/bin/install_openwin
-
- This copies the loadable modules into place, sets up the tooltalk
- entries in /etc/ined.conf and a couple of other things. have a look at
- the script.
-
- If you install from the CD then this gets run for you automatically.
