Re: [newbie] X window remote access?

There's two parts to X: the server (the display unit, the machine you're sitting at) and the client (the programs that connect to the X server to display their output). Telnet opens a session so you can run programs, but you're not necessarily running an X Server which can accept display output.

I think the typical way to get rid of LILO is with the DOS/Windows fdisk... I think the command is fdisk -mbr or fdisk mbr, something like that. Should clear your master boot record (which means you'll have to reinstall NT's bootloader). Actually, no. NT puts it's bootloader on it's own

If you feel you've tried everything else, open your box, disconnect your modem (ground or earth yourself first), and set the jumpers to a COM that isn't occupied by your mouse and to any free IRQ except for 15 and (?). There should be a jumper to disable PnP, do this, and all should be well.
