We've just got a new LAN of workstations here at Middle Tennessee State and
there are still a lot of bugs. Of the sources that we've pulled off
comp.sources.x that we've actually been able to compile, most of them still
don't work right.
The gif viewer xgif compiles okay, but doesn't look like it puts everything
where it should when it displays. We can make out the outline, but something
is still wrong. It all still looks kind of fuzzy and out of whack.
Has anybody encountered this one? Okay, has anyone solved
this one?
Also, we can make xtrek all right, but it blows up with a "Can't find xtrek
font, using alternate path", then "xset fp rehash" really causes problems.
It also seems like the generic mit include files are gone. Maybe it has
something to do with the upgrade from 3.0 to 3.1.
The network is made up of DECstation 3100's and VAXstation 3100's, running
Ultrix 3.1.
We're all new to this and haven't had much time to dig in yet. Any advice
would be appreciated. Let us know what to expect from sources that have
worked on Sun stations when we try 'em on ours.
Okay everybody, take your best shot.
