Problems installing/running XFree86 on QNX4

Hi,

I am having problems trying to configure X. When I run XFree86 -configure I
get:

_XSERVTransSocketOpen: socket() failed for local
_XSERVTransSocketOpenCOTSServer: Unable to open socket for local
_XSERVTransOpen: transport open failed for local/node1:0
_XSERVTransMakeAllCOTSServerListeners: failed to open listener for local

Fatal server error:
Failed to establish all listening sockets
I think I have TCP/IP configured and running in that I can ping other nodes
and I ftp’d the software onto the box in the first place.

I have had some experience previously with QNX X Windows so hopefully once I
get passed this I might be able to do something!

Here is the list of software versions:

Hello,

I would guess that you need to upgrade from Socket to Tcpip, because
Socket doesn’t support unix domain sockets.
