| It's faster and easier to install an other Windowmanager and modify
| .xinitrc. By the way: before aquawm I used IceWM (it is not so big than
| kde ...)
|
| You have only to copy /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc to ~/.xinitrc and modify it
| by exchanging the line
| exec quartz-wm
| By the newly installed window manager
thats what i do anyway. but i want the Xserver standalone WITHOUT
any OS-X graphics GUI at all. comment it out from /etc/ttys and work in
textmode. when i want OS-X apps i launch the 'WindowServer/loginwindow' -
when i want X11 i want to launch '/usr/X11R6/bin/xinit'.
but this does not seem to be an easy task ... i dont know much about
apple-hardware but it should be possible to use a Xorg 6.8.2 as the
nvidea chipset within my powerbook should be supported by now.
(at least it worked this way with FreeBSD/Linux - even DRI worked...).
later,
cjm
