Running X11R2 on a Sun3/140 with SunOS 3.5, all xmh does it to pop up a very strange looking tall and narrow window with a bunch of rectangles connected by lines. It dosen't seem to respond to any mouse clicks. I get the same behavior on a Sun 3/60 monochrome (other background info same as yours). I've sent in a bug report about it. I can get things going again if I start up the X11R1 xmh first, quit it, then start the R2 xmh. I haven't done any carefully controlled experiments, but I think that reading mail outside of xmh might affect it. From this, I suspect it might be related to the xmh folder cache data. -- not sure... I forgot to mention that even after running R1 xmh first, I still get a narrow window that I have to resize myself (but the buttons are painted with text and all). Tim Becker. becker@cs.rochester.edu
