<h1 class="topictitle1">Configuring the iceWM window manager</h1>
|
|
<div><div class="section"><p>Configure the iceWM window manager (iceWM), as an optional step
|
|
during NAWT set up, when you want to interactively use the Virtual Network
|
|
Computing (VNC) server. For example, you may want to run a Java™ application
|
|
that features a graphical user interface (GUI).</p>
|
|
<p>iceWM is a small
|
|
but powerful window manager included in the iSeries™ Tools For Developers PRPQ.
|
|
For information about installing the PRPQ, see the following page:</p>
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
<p><a href="nawtprpqinstall.htm">Install iSeries Tools for Developers PRPQ</a></p>
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
<p>Running
|
|
in the background, iceWM controls the look and feel of windows running
|
|
within the X Window environment of the VNC server. iceWM provides an interface
|
|
and a set of features that are similar to many popular window managers.
|
|
The default behavior of the included vncserver_java script starts the VNC
|
|
server and runs iceWM.</p>
|
|
<p>Completing this step creates several configuration
|
|
files that iceWM requires. If you want, you can also disable iceWM.</p>
|
|
<p><strong>Configuring
|
|
iceWM</strong></p>
|
|
<p>To configure the iceWM window manager, complete the following
|
|
steps at an <span class="keyword">i5/OS™</span> command
|
|
prompt. Be sure to perform these steps under the profile that you use to
|
|
start the VNC server.</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<ol><li class="stepexpand"><span>Type the following command and press <strong>ENTER</strong> to start the
|
|
installation. : </span> <pre> STRPTL CLIENT(IGNORE)</pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>The IGNORE value functions as a placeholder that ensures the command
|
|
activates only the configuration features of STRPTL that NAWT requires.</p>
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Type the following command and press <strong>ENTER</strong> to sign off:
|
|
</span> <pre> SIGNOFF</pre>
|
|
Signing off ensures
|
|
that any session-specific results of the STRPTL command do not affect subsequent
|
|
actions that you perform to use or configure NAWT.</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
<div class="section"><p><strong>Note: </strong>Run the STRPTL command only once for each profile
|
|
that starts a VNC server. NAWT does not require any of the available optional
|
|
arguments for the command. These statements override any setup instructions
|
|
for STRPTL associated with the 5799-PTL iSeries Tools For Developers PRPQ.</p>
|
|
<p><strong>Disabling
|
|
iceWM</strong></p>
|
|
<p>Starting the VNC server creates or modifies an existing script
|
|
file called xstartup_java that contains the command to run iceWM. The xstartup_java
|
|
script file resides in the following integrated file system directory:</p>
|
|
<pre> /home/<em>VNCprofile</em>/.vnc/</pre>
|
|
<p>where <em>VNCprofile</em> is the name of the profile that started the VNC server. </p>
|
|
<p>To
|
|
completely disable iceWM, use a text editor to either comment out or remove
|
|
the line in the script that starts iceWM. To comment out the line, insert
|
|
a pound sign character (#) at the beginning of the line. </p>
