- Hi,<nl>
- <nl>
- Over the past month or so I've been trialing the ATK binary distribution on ou=
- r Sun server. <nl>
- <nl>
- From my SPARCstation it ran/runs very well, and I'm already to announce its av=
- ailability to the campus here.<nl>
- <nl>
- Unfortunately, I can't get it to run on NCD X-terminals - running ATK applicat=
- ions (like <bold>runapp lauchapp</bold>) causes the following error:<nl>
- <nl>
- <excerpt>Could not open display; this program will not run without a window sy=
- stem<nl>
- <nl>
- </excerpt>Needless to say, windows was running at the time ;-)<nl>
- <nl>
- Any ideas where I should start looking for the problem? The server runs SunOS =
- 4.1.2 and X11R5<nl>

- Cheers<nl>

- PS: Anyone know how to load extra fonts on a VAXstation? I can't get ATK to ru=
- n on them either - but this time a trace reveals its having font problems...
