- Dear netters,
-
- We got a loaner Indigo from SGI(IRIX 4.0.5f). Everything went well
- except that after
- I logout from the system and logging back in I cannot bring up any
- window. I can bring up the clock and the rest of the stuff from the
- Toolchest. I checked the value in /etc/config/system.Gammaval and
- it was 2.0. From my past experience, it was 1.7 for my PI's. I changed
- the value to 1.7 but that still didn't solve my problem. (I changed the value
- via a dumb terminal).
-
- Also if I log in other than root, I cannot do a "w" command. It says
- "no kmem" but kmem is in /dev. Please respond to my account here onthe net
- as my company is not connected to the Internet.
-
-
- thanks
