[comp.sys.hp] X11R4 for HP 9000/300

nick@abblund.se (07/25/90)

Where can I get hold of X11 r4 for HP 9000/300. Either Sun or HP 
cartridge will do.

We'd like to know as well.  Plus, we'd like it for the 800 series
(in this madhouse, we've got both!)

Yaser Doleh <doleh@math-cs.kent.edu> was supplying X11R4 source from
MIT on either HP 9144A compatible cartridges or SUN 60MB cartridges.
He was charging a small fee for media/shipping/handling expenses.

The X11R4 distribution from MIT has the binaries for the machine-specific
libraries. I"m not 100% sure that it has the /800 versions, but it 
definitely has the /300 versions -- I've been running X11R4 on my
9000/350 for about two months now. And yes, it's faster and better 
than X11R3, so upgrade. And yes, it runs fine under HP-UX 7.0

In case you don't know (flame on!) you can get the complete distribution
from expo.lcs.mit.edu. It's big, so don't ftp it during the day. 

Hope this helps,
