[comp.windows.x] running open windows on SS2 with GS frame buffer

apollo@ecf.toronto.edu (Vince Pugliese) (12/31/90)

we took delivery of an SS2 just before the holidays and i tried
getting open windows to run and succeeded only in getting some severe
hangs. i realize that i may not have put everything into getting open windows
running, something about sugar plums dancing and whatnot, but i suspect
that the GS frame buffer may be at the root of this problem. anyone else
report this?? 
in the spirit of the season, please no RTFM. when i go back to work i will
take a longer look at the problem.
