Hi All,

I am very new to microwindows environment.
I installed nxlib-0.45 so as to use microwindows with FLTK. 
But once i install nxlib-0.45, both microwindows and FLTK stop working and 
they give the following error.

nxclient: retry connect attempt 1
nxclient: retry connect attempt 2
nxclient: retry connect attempt 3
nxclient: retry connect attempt 4
nxclient: retry connect attempt 5

Now if i revert the X11R6 libraries to what they were before installing 
nxlib, the both microwindows and FLTK start working.

Can anyone tell me what the problem is. Is there anything else that i have 
to do before installing nxlib.

Regards,
Abhijith K S

Sounds like you're using X11 to run FLTK and
nano-X.  You can't be running X11 and replace
X11 with NXLIB, it won't work.  Recompile
nano-X to use framebuffer, and make sure that
works outside of X11, then install NXLIB
and FLTK will work outside of X11.

Greg
