Can you give details about the peecee side setup, please? Which X server application? From what you listed, it sounds like your X server comes with a built-in window manager, already.Blade100 - netbsd 5.0 blink$ startx --version xauth: creating new authority file /home/mc/.serverauth.25593 xauth: (argv):1: bad display name "blink.:0" in "list" command xauth: (stdin):1: bad display name "blink.:0" in "add" command X.Org X Server 1.4.2
Hum. So... You are running Putty on a windows machine to log in to your NetBSD machine.
First question: Where do you want your window manager (xfwm4) to appear? On the windows desktop, or on a screen attached to the NetBSD machine?
If the former, your windows machine has to run an X server, and the X client (window manager, xterm of what have you) runs on the NetBSD box.
If the latter - what's the point?
