Are there C++ compilers/translators available (within 4 months) for SGI (Personal IRIS specifically) or Sun SPARC workstations? What are the vendor's names, contacts, and phone numbers? -- Thx

We had the identical problem on our 4/330 with a SUN-669 not too long ago. Because we couldn't get it running, we ended up leaving it on the 1+ and NFSing. Howie howard%romulus@venice.sedd.trw.com

The repetitive nature of this problem leads me to believe that it's some sort of daemon gremlin. Has anyone else experienced this problem? We called Sun but you now how that goes. I apologize if this is old turf but we are just now getting a news feed in here and I've been out of touch for a while. Note that I'm still using my university account. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Christopher Beale Low guy on the big totem-pole. Oopse, I haven't changed my sig since I became a taxpayer.

I know that there are vendors out there who have versions of Motif for
Suns. Can anyone tell me who these vendors might be? Can anyone recommend
on vendor's implementation over another?
I've got a SPARCStation running SunOS 4.1.1.
Please email and I'll post a summary.
Thanks,
Pat

I've got the Transript software installed on my Suns here, and
/etc/printcap has /usr/tran/[arch]/lib/psdf defined as the filter
for the -d option to lpd. However, attempts to print dvi files
with lpr -d filename.dvi generate "psdf: filter not available."
messages. This message is built in to the psdf script, as a matter
of fact:
root@forest# tail psdf

psnf) psdit | $comm ;;
pstf) pscat | $comm ;;

esac
It seems that Transcript doesn't actually support printing
dvi files :-(. Does anybody have a working version of psdf, or
other filter I can use for dvi files? TIA.

I've got a really simple question which doesn't seem to be in the
FAQL. I have a Sun SPARCStation SLC running SunOS 4.1.1 with
xview to handle my XWindows. My problem is that some windows
which expect to receive keyboard input are ignoring KeyPresses
and beeping instead. It's as though the KeyPress event mask
hadn't been set. Looking at the source code though, I know
that it has been.
Any clues?
Thanks,
Pat
