- Stupid question...what damn Greeting Screen? Do you have an .xinitrc file
- in your home directory? if not, get a copy from /usr/lpp/X11/defaults
- (the file is xinitrc in the defaults subdir, but it should be .xinitrc
- in *your* home dir.) and edit/comment out the part about xdt3, i.e. :
-
- if [ -x /usr/lpp/X11/bin/xdt3 ]
- then
- /usr/lpp/X11/bin/xdt3 &
