Note: This is arriving too late for Friday morning assistance. I 
forgot to put AMMRL in the subject line. My fault - again.

Folks,

I'm up against a deadline and have fallen behind due to the need for 
extensive physical therapy. Therefore, I need some hand-holding.

I installed Red Hat linux on a Dell Precision 390n from Varian's DVD 
(you have to rejumper the optical drives so the DVD is master and the 
CD is slave). It appeared to load as intended. The computer is 
configured to Varian's specs.

I installed vnmrJ 2.1B in the usual fashion. On creating a user in 
vnmrj adm, I get an error message about "can't create experiment 1." 
On running vnmrJ, I get an unresponsive display and a terminal error 
message about the X11 environment.

This computer will be a standalone workstation for remote X-sessions 
by organic chemistry lab. They want it ready Tuesday.

I wonder if someone can talk me through it Friday morning. If you 
can, drop me an email and I will call from the phone across the hall 
next to the computer. (I sort of expected a KDE toolbar with a vnmrJ icon.)

Thanks,
Bill
