Dear Peer,
I am not sure about SLES9 but in recent SuSE Linux versions the xterm application is not part of the Xorg distribution but is provided in a separate package (e.g., xterm-208-14 in OpenSuSE 10.1). Could you please verify if the file /usr/X11R6/bin/xterm > exists and/or if the xterm-* package is installed (rpm -qa | grep xterm)?. If it is installed and still you don't get a window, please look for execution errors in the following files:
ll /usr/X11R6/bin/xterm -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 369112 Dec 2 2005 /usr/X11R6/bin/xterm rpm -qf /usr/X11R6/bin/xterm XFree86-4.3.99.902-43.71 nothing in the log's There is no /var/log/Xorg* But the xterm seem's to do something (error messages, but where) pkoch 17853 99.9 2.2 117800 90980 ? Rs 11:47 22:21 xterm Load is 1 - nothing running. Only the xterm ...
