Hi,
This weekend was update to 2.0 weekend and all went well.
Now I can run X on my first edition iBook and have displays
from across the net which didn't seem to work in 1.6.2
makes me very happy.
One problem and one question.
- Problem. The shutdown -h now command (or for that matter
the halt command) halts the system but doesn't return control
to OpenFirmware. This means that I have to 3 finger reboot
and then go to open firmware to type the
shut-down
command and actually turn the thing off. No big deal, but,
slightly anoying
- Question. Now that can use my iBook to display X clients across
the net, why is that ssh -X doesn't set X forwarding when connecting
to NetBSD 2.0 systems? I've looked at /etc/ssh/ssh_config and set
ForwardX11 to yes but that doesn't seem to help. What am I missing?
Thanks!
cheers
