 Hi Doug,

  Thanks for uploading your install of HOBLink. To my surprise, I was actually able to get it to work. In case it helps someone else, here is what I did:

1. Download Doug's install of HOBLink, copy to the C:\Programs\hobx11 directory. Tried starting xserver.exe and xstartup.exe but got the notice it is not a legal installation.

2. Downloaded Doug's HOBLink installer, ran it and installed over the copied version. At the end added my name (serial number pre-inserted) after which xserver.exe and xstartup.exe work without complaint!

 Haven't actually tried using it for anything yet, so might see some of the strangeness Dave noted, but at least it is operational.

Regards,

OK I'll try and attach it again.

Dave Yeo:
Found my problem. I turned DIVE off as it performs horribly with Panorama, and that caused my problems. Turning it back on and xman becomes readable with nice glyphs, but slow as in watching each line getting drawn.
Need to remember how to get the VNC server working with real X, it is fast especially with a minimal window manager.

Martin,

inie.exe is a little program that edits *.INI files.  I THINK I got it from Hobbes but I am not sure.  I have it installed in a UTIL directory that contains all my utilities, like zip, unzip, etc. and I have been coping the contents of that directory from machine to machine for years so I don't remember where it came from.  But I have zipped it up and uploaded it.

Thanks Doug. I didn't have it my radar. I just uploaded it to hobbes too, I didn't find it there.
