Are you asking for a X-server to run on the mainframe's display hardware (if there is such a thing) or are you asking for libX11 so that the z/OS apps can display on a remote X-server? I assume you're asking for the later and I would have thought that Unix System Services would already come with libX11. If you don't already have libX11, maybe you can ask IBM where you might get it - they must know. I don't see anything in XFree86's makefiles indicating that anyone has tried to build XFree86's libX11 on z/OS. Mark. On Sat, 3 Jun 2006, Michael A.
