I am running X11R3 on a Microvax II GPX with qd driver and Vaxstation
2000 with sg driver. They are running ULTRIX 2.2 . When I try to use
texx both of those systems crash with panic: Segmentation fault. The
same version of texx (from R3 distribution + fix to adjust the byte
order for ULTRIX) runs fine on Vaxstations 2000 with Xqvss server. If
anybody has any ideas why that happens, I would appreciate any hints
Thanks,
Margaret

Setup: R3 on Sun3/160 SunOS 4.0, R4 on Sun4/110 SunOS 4.0
I'm not sure if this is a recognised problem, but one or two clients
with R3 libraries are having problems talking to an R4 server. It's
always an `X Protocol error', eg:
[ home grown program... ]
X Protocol error: BadMatch, invalid parameter attributes
Major opcode of failed request: 62 (X_CopyArea)
Minor opcode of failed request: 0
Resource id in failed request: 0xa00011
Serial number of failed request: 53
Current serial number in output stream: 54
[ texx... ]
X Protocol error: BadMatch, invalid parameter attributes
Major opcode of failed request: 70 (X_PolyFillRectangle)
Minor opcode of failed request: 0
Resource id in failed request: 0x0
Serial number of failed request: 33
Current serial number in output stream: 214
I can guess that the R3 code is either doing something `unofficial'
that is no longer valid, or that R4 really does expect different
attributes from the ones being sent. If the former, perhaps I only
need to set up something that should have been done anyway, but it
somehow didn't matter in R3?
Any help greatly appreciated.
Also, what's the best book for introducing X from the programmer's
point of view?
