So, where's the executable? I can't find an ELF binary anywhere in this install.
Alas, my install has the /opt/applix directory structure, but there's no "applix" executable there. AFAIK there is _no_ executable in the install at all. Some demo :-( I really don't know what to make of this.

My ApplixWare installation has /bin/applix symlink to /opt/applix/bin/applix . My package comes out of Red Hat, if that makes any difference. If that still doesn't work, try to look into the directory /opt/applix to see what else is there. You should find something like 'applix' and has its file bits set to executable. In my installation, /opt/applix/bin/applix is actually a script that sets up a few things and then start up Applixware at /opt/applix/applix . Regards, C. J.

How many packages did you install ? You have to install both the apxengdm for english language support and the Applixware demo main package called axdemo. Hope this might help.

If I remember correctly, S.u.S.E. has included the Applix binary as one of the menu options in FWM2/Afterstep. Try launching Afterstep as your windows manager, and look through the menu selections. I believe that the binary is located under the "commercial" heading. Hope this helps. -- Glenn -- - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
