    I have a pretty nice FreeBSD box that I run X windows on, and an SGI =
running IRIX on the same lan.  I thought it would be neat to get a =
remote X session up on my FreeBSD box along with the local X session I =
was already running. Here is a summary of the commands I used:

# export DISPLAY=3D0.1
# X :1

    I then tried to run 4Dwm, the IRIX windows manager, on the X =
session.  I got an error saying it was not authorized to use the screen =
and I realized I needed to xhost + it for the on display :1

    Well, as soon as i typed the command xhost everything went crazy, =
the only thing that actually works now is my previous X session, any =
conrols (control+alt+F1-8) give me an error saying out of scan range... =
Any ideas?
