I have a Sun 2/120 running SunOS 3.4 and X11R4 at home.
Step 1. Bring up gcc 1.39.
Step 2. Have at least 4 meg in your machine (I have 5). The Sun2 multibus
has a limit of six meg. At one time I hacked some 2/50's to have 8
(eight!) megs...
Step 3. make World.
Yes, it works fine. I copied X from a working source tree (PL18), so Step
3 might be different for you (smile).
It's amusing to load xv and play with gif's while watching vm usage go to
13 megs or so, out of the 16 in a stock 3.4 system. Wheee?

This is one-half of the address space usable by the 68010. The other half is mapped onto the P1 bus. (or something close to that). I think they call it I/O Space and Memory Space. I have to 4Mb cards in mine, with one meg going to waste. X11R4 works just fine on my 2/120 running 4.0.3. Well, a bit slow... Cheers!greg
