Hello all again,
Can anyone tell me what the error message:
" Xflush: server wakeup failed, operation blocked"
means.
Here is the context:
The customer is trying to display a client window on a VS2000 (11Mb)
from a DS3100 (8Mb) both running UWS 2.0. He gets this after about
28 minutes of sending the output window to the VS2000. If he recompiles
the code on the VS2000 and sends the display to the DS3100, it responds
in about 1 minute with a window on the DS3100 screen.
Can anyone also help me to solve the problem, will upgrading both
systems to 2.1 aleviate it, or do we have a bug (sorry, feature)
in the Xqdsg server. Both are colour (or color to our American friends)
systems and both are Ultrix.
HELP! ... Les

| 1716.1 | More windows? | KERNEL::CARLETONL | Hold a chicken in the air ... | Thu Dec 07 1989 05:01 | 14 |
Hi again guys,
It appears that my customer is coming up against the limit on the
number of windows he can create on the VS2000, so I now ask the
question ...
Is it possible to increase the max number of displayable windows
on a X system (VS2000) by changing a parameter somewheres.
Many thanks to all who repond

The default swap partition on a VS 2000 is 'b'.
You are always better off swapping on two separate disks, or,
a bigger swap partition.
Also, avoiding some of the colossal dx* clients should help.
Dxterm can be replaced with xterm, dxsession with xdm, shutting
off dxue on startup, etc..
Use 'chpt(8)' and 'newfs(8)' with great care. A more thorough
discussion on altering disk partitions is at NAC::ULTRIX
From the ULTRIX man pages...
