Here are some instructions how to run X11 programs on AS400/IBMi on the PUB400.com
If you have your own AS400/IBMi the instruction will probably differ, but you then
can just adjust accordingly
Also included are a couple of games
- Doom (prboom - compiled on AIX 5.1)
- Dopewars (compiled on AIX 5.1)
- Elinks (compiled on AIX 5.1)
On the client side first make sure you have Xephyr/Xnest and use X11 forwarding if you want to play doom and run
(This is on my MacOS)
Run Xephyr
----------
/opt/X11/bin/Xephyr -listen tcp -ac :1.0 -screen 1200x700:24
Connect with X11 forwarding
(adjust to your needs - if you have an account on pub400.com change the user)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
DISPLAY=:1 ssh -Y -p 2222 user@pub400.com
Next on the AS400/IBMi
Here are some instructions to be done on AS400/IBMi side
Define some environment variables
if we want to run a nice remote X11 desktop
-------------------------------------------
export TERM=aixterm
export PATH=/QOpenSys/usr/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/QOpenSys/usr/bin/X11:/usr/sbin:.:/usr/bin:/QOpenSys/pkgs/bin/
mwm
Download/extract doom.tar and dopewars.tar games (if you wish to play them on the AS400/IBMi)
and change the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to customize to your need
Included is also a www ASCII browser Elinks
DOOM
----
tar -xvf doom.tar
cd doom
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/this/dir/
./prboom -nofullscreen -nosound -iwad doom.wad
DOPEWARS
--------
tar -xvf dopewars.tar
cd dopewars
touch dopewars.sco
(to run server)
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/this/dir/
./dopewars -S -p 34000 -d ./dopewars.sco
(to run client)
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/this/dir/
./dopewars -a -d ./dopewars.sco
ELINKS
------
tar -xvf elinks.tar
cd elinks
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/this/dir/
./elinks
Enjoy!
