418.0. "ZLX[p]-E3/PS 4D20 with Pro/E under CDE" by HYDRA::DONSBACH (Jeff Donsbach, Software Partner Engineering, DTN 297-6862) Fri Mar 14 1997 15:45

    
    The following procedure will allow a ZLX[p]-E3 or PowerStorm
    4D20 to work with Pro/Engineer under the CDE window manager.
    If you don't do this, Pro/E will crash under CDEx (It works fine
    under DXSession/Mwm as is though).
    
    Log in or "su" to the root account
    
    # mkdir /etc/dt/config
    # cp /usr/dt/config Xservers /etc/dt/config
    edit /etc/dt/config/Xservers and
    
    change
         :0   Local local@console /usr/bin/X11/X :0
    to
         :0   Local local@console /usr/bin/X11/X :0 -I -ffbforceDepth 12
    
    You will now need to restart the X Server for the change to take
    effect. The least complicated way to explain to a user how to do
    this is to just reboot the system.
    
    After making this change, E3/4D20's will work with Pro/E under CDE.
    
    Regards,
    -Jeff D.
    
    p.s. no, the 4D20 is still not certified. We're still working on it....
