[comp.windows.x] x11 on uvax 2000: 2nd question

I can't get it started with getty.  I've followed the instructions in
the installation docs; which is to say that I've put the following line
in my /etc/ttys file:

ttyv0 "/usr/local/x11/bin/xterm -L -geometry 80x24+0+0 0" xterm off window="/us
r/local/x11/bin/Xqdss 0"

We had problems with the X11R2 server on a VaxStar (VaxStation) 2000
caused by:

	- new sg.o driver needed for kernal when making 'vmunix'
	  when running the new Ultrix Release 2.2 .

	- fixes 16 and 17 in the current 'xstuff' index which are
	  specifically for the server to run on VaxStars.

	- xterm from X11R2 would not come up at boot. You could execute
	  it successfully though once the server came up. It appears that
	  the xterm sent to us by DEC runs as root and works at boot -
	  you may not have a problem with this.

After that - no problems.
