I have built X11R4/patch 18 for my SPARCstation330 with CG9/gp2
colour board under SunOS 4.1. As the MIT server does not support
the CG9, I modified the Xsun server by applying Takahashi Naoto's
Version 1.2 diffs (obtained from alw.nih.gov, 128.231.128.251).
This upgrade allows the server to run on both the CG8 and CG9.
The server works fine under twm, but with XView 2.0 (olwm,
cmdtool, etc) I get the following repeated errors:
XView warning: xv_rop: can't handle drawables of different depth
XView warning: xv_rop: xv_rop_internal failed
Under olwm, and starting up with a clock, a cmdtool, and filemgr,
everything starts up OK more or less with the following exceptions:
-the clock program has no face.
-various icon images (wastebasket, cmdtool, etc) blend in to the
workspace background, i.e. are not visible.
-"drag-and-drop" doesn't work.
-probably others but I only tried it with clock, cmdtool, and filemgr.
Can any one out there help me? Is anyone else using Takahashi Naoto's
MIT server changes with XView? Any pointers or suggestions would be
greatly appreciated (please send e-mail).

The patches are included in the server kit, which you can get from export.lcs.mit.edu as Xtaac-alpha.tar.Z. Alternatively, I can mail the patches to interested people. -- Arne Ludwig arne@rrzbu.hanse.de ...uunet!??????!rrzbu!arne
