I recently installed X11 R3 on IBM-Rt running AOS 4.3. The server generated by the standard release dumped core with segmentation fault. I replaced "server/ddx/ibm" in the standard release by "ibm-rt.r3-fixes.tar.Z" form "/X/contrib.R3" on uunet.uu.net. I will appreciate any help I can get about the following problems I have been having. 1. When the server starts it prints error message "vgaProbe: Can not open /dev/vga". However I am only using mpel, not a vga. I tried did try to fix the problem by "MAKEDEV displays" in /dev as root but the problem did not go away. 2. Xibm comes up with a black background. I can not change it with "xsetroot -grey" or "xsetroot -bitmap <bitmapfile>". 3. The cursor disappears when in windows open by some programs. I understand that at least one such program uses a bitmap for the cursor.
