- Look at the file /usr/lpp/X11/README.
- This will provide some hints and places to look.
- The configuration files are in /usr/lib/X11/xdm.
-
- My Xservers entry looks like:
- :0 local /usr/bin/X11/X -sdebug
-
- On some machines we had a problem, so I had to use
- hostname:0 local /usr/bin/X11/X -sdebug
