[comp.windows.x] Novice installation question

Greetings --
   I am trying to install X11R2 on a MicroVAX II running Ultrix 2.0, using
the QDSS driver; the display uses four planes.
   At this point, all operations not involving text seem to work OK.  However,
the cursor looks like a V instead of an X; no other text works (sometimes
I get dots).
   I tried rebuilding the SNF files, with no success.  The xlsfont program
lists all the fonts I expect the server to know about.  I have played with
the -fp qualifier on the server command to make sure it is looking in the
right place for fonts.
   Any suggestions on how to get text working correctly would be appreciated.
Thank you!
