[comp.windows.x] HELP! Server Connections Hung!

jipping@cs.hope.edu (Mike Jipping) (03/17/90)

HELP!  I'm real confused.  

I built X11R4 on a color SPARCstation 1 with a GX board.  It ran wihtout
a hitch.  Now, I run the same binaries on a MONOCHROME SPARCstation 1 and
some programs run and some hang.  THe hung programs seem to want to do
graphics and are stuck awaiting a socket connections (with the server?).

For example, run "ico" on the color Sparc -- no problem.  Run "ico" on
the mono, and the thing hangs.

Tracing the programs system calls gives me lots of output, but ends with

open ("/var/yp/binding/cs.hope.edu.2", 0, 036734076661) = 5
flock (5, 06) = -1 EWOULDBLOCK (Operation would block)
read (5, "".., 2) = 2
close (5) = 0
getsockname (4, 0xf7fff07c, 0xf7fff08c) = 0
sendto (4, "".., 84, 0, 0x18f30, 16) = 84
select (64, 0xf7fff01c, 0, 0, 0x18f44) = 1
recvfrom (4, "".., 1600, 0, 0xf7fff008, 0xf7fff018) = 88
gettimeofday (0xf7fff1a0, 0xf7fff198) = 0
close (3) = 0
socket (2, 1, 0) = 3
setsockopt (3, 6, 1, 0xf7fff274, 4) = 0
connect (3, "".., 16) = 

...and we're hung...

Has someone run into this before?  Should I be doing something different
with the mono SPARC?

Thanks.
