7/19 I would like to set my display to another machine that is
listening for X11 on a port other than 6000. How can I?
\_ If you set your DISPLAY to server:42, your X clients will
connect to server on port 6000 + 42. This will work for
any port above 6000. Connecting to ports under 6000 isn't
supported, and negative numbers don't work, but you can
specify large numbers and they'll be treated as negative --
for example, on a 32-bit system, server:4294967295 would
connect to port 5999.
\_ cool. How are you figuring that 429467295 = -1 ?
(or 4294961295 = -1?)?
\_ 2^32-1. Look up "two's complement" in any intro
architecture/digital design text (150 and 61c texts
included).

\_ Bullshit. Go read the CSUA constitution and
bylaws.
\_ the csua is for people who can't get into
cs and are desperately looking for some
skills to learn so they don't have to
flip burgers otherwise.
\_ do you want fries with that?

students alike. - Paolo, CSUA President.

\_ umm, moron, i have established interest by the
intial question and the further asking for detail.
As to the CENsor, thanks but no thanks; i would
\_ Restoration of previous ad hominem:
"This person is too dumb to be in CS."
like to have been able to read the personal
attack and it isn't even in ERic's motd archive.
For info i was not in the major, i AM in the
profession (if y'all accept blue-collar sys
admining as part of "the profession") -TOP
\_ I think whether they're "qualified" to be in the CSUA
is irrelevant; whether they're qualified to participate
in a discussion where they have no knowledge is the
issue. -tom
\_ The individual in question is _seeking_ said knowledge.
Which leaves you, yet again, without a point. Shut the
fuck up tom. |
