How to start X in solaris 10?

Hi! I tried startx, X:0.0 etc... but no results.
It seems that X isn't arranged like under Linux.
Thx.

kdmconfig to select and configure the server, possibly /usr/X11/bin/xorgconfig if you use Xorg (vs Xsun).
Then you can start X11 manually with xinit or automatically with "dtconfig -e"

Ok i done that, but xinit or dtconfig -e gave nothing. I can launch X but i have a grey screen with the mouse pointer.

This is precisely all what X11 is about, a grey screen and a pointer.
You are missing a graphic environment/clients.
Try: dtconfig -reset
Log out and what for a while for dtlogin to start the graphic login window.

I have no dtconfig.

Try /usr/dt/bin/dtconfig

It's done but nothing happens.

/etc/init.d/dtlogin start
