[OpenIndiana-discuss] after Installation, no X11?

 I'd be extremely interested if you get twm running on OI. I've stuck with Solaris 10 u8 because I couldn't figure out a way to run twm cleanly.

Hi,
thanks for the very fast reply

I did the mate_install and enabled the lightdm service.
looked nice but I got:
0 1 root at skyfall pts/1 ~ 4# svcs -vx lightdm
svc:/application/graphical-login/lightdm:default (Light Display Manager)
 State: offline since Tue Feb 23 20:35:06 2021
Reason: Service svc:/system/consolekit:default was restarting too quickly.
 See: http://illumos.org/msg/SMF-8000-GE
 Path: svc:/application/graphical-login/lightdm:default
 svc:/system/consolekit:default
 See: man -M /usr/share/man -s 1 lightdm
Impact: This service is not running.

But a decent nvidia-driver did the trick, box is up and running
with a mate desktop. Were can I find the pkg-names of aggregartion
packages, assuming mate_install is on of those?

I will see for a faster desktop so, X11 with twm is what I am
running on FreeBSD-Boxes, CDE on AIX and so. I saw, there is
a cde available so I will go to installing that and give it a
try.

Tanks a lot,
Rolf
