Now, I have managed to port the OpenWindow environment over to my Win98 PC, from solaris 7. The file manager and other things work fine, but when I tried to open my application, it says : Atr: Failed to find appropriate visual and application failed to open. By the way, I have replaced my xstartup file with the default Xinitrc file from my solaris system. Also, does where in the system is the script for loading the CDE environment instead of the OpenWindows environment? Thanks.
