I recently compiled twm for my IBM RS 6000, and I am having a problem
with the menus. When I press a mouse button, the menu pops up, but
the is no writing for the various options. When I move down the
menu, as I pass each each option, they suddenly appear. As I release
the button, and press it again, the writing is again absent.
Has anybody run into this? Any help would be apprecitated. By the
way, people have been telling me about patches to X11r4 for the
RS 6000 on export.mit.edu. I have no ftp capability here. Could
some kind heart send me those patches? I would forever be in your
debt. Thanks!

I might be (and probably am) mistaken, but I think it is a backing store problem that invoking the server without backing store might hide the problem? In any event, can't test this as the problem went away with 3005. -- +-----All Views Expressed Are My Own And Are Not Necessarily Shared By------+ +------------------------------My Employer----------------------------------+ + Ronald S.
