I got X o work. But I'having a hard time configuring the .xinitrc file. the line that reads: xrdb -load .Xdefaults gives me 2 error messages when I run startx: xrdb: no such file or directory xrdb: can't open file .Xdefaults I believe as a consequence of that I cannot have Netscape of Mosaic to appear in the Control menu. Any Ideas?
