:
: I downed microwindows-0.88.tar.gz and microwindows-0.88patch1.tar.gz from
"http://www.microwindows.org and built in /usr/microwin/
: For compile, I typed "make clean" "make" "make install" and moved into
/usr/microwin/src/bin/
:
: For running, typed "./nano-X" , but It is not working.

First, if you install it, you can't run ./nano-X, but
just "nano-X".

But your problem is most likely that your kernel
isn't compiled with framebuffer support enabled.
See the /usr/src/linux/documentation for framebuffer
instructions.

I think we need to update the FAQ with detailed instructions
for setting up a framebuffer kernel.  Any volunteers?

Regards,

Greg
