Ok...I got it to work...it was a problem with the app. But...now I've got a really odd one. I'm trying to install "Qt30", and when I do a make install it tells me " qt-3.0.5_5 is marked as broken: The QT 3.x port does not support any XFree86 < 4.x". That's fine with me, since I'll be using the 4 libraries, but how to I get it to install?

X needs to be installed merely for the support apps & libraries. Make sure your DISPLAY Variable is set to windowshostname:0 where 0 is the number of your display (And it should be 0 by default). Then from the command line, run the app, it should appear on your Windows Desktop. Adam On Sat, 2003-01-25 at 14:31, Brian McCann wrote: > Hi all. I've got a simple and stupid question.
