[comp.emacs] Problems with Gnu-18.52+X under SunOS4.0

galvin-peter@CS.Yale.EDU (Peter Galvin) (10/10/88)

I'm having a problem getting emacs-18.52 to run under SunOS4.0.  I
built it for the IBM RT running 4.3+X11R2 and it works perfectly.
Changing the config file to s-sunos4 and m-sun3, keeping X11R2 enabled
produces an emacs which runs with the -nw switch, but keeps giving the
error 
X server not responding.  Check your DISPLAY environment variable.

I've tried two changes - one was to recompile with gcc (1.29), and while 
that resulted in a much smaller and faster emacs it had the same problem.
And on advice from ryan@purdue.edu I tried byte-recompile'ing the lisp 
directory and reloading emacs with the new libraries.  That didn't help
either though.

Thanks for any help.
