1) I am running NeWS on SunOS 4.0 and am looking for people that have done the same. The performance seems to be almost as bad as X :-), any clues why ? (and yes, i have : define(LOGHOST,1) in syslog.conf). I would appreciate any hints as to how improve things under 4.0. 2) I keep getting : Window lock broken after time limit exceeded by pid XXX where 187 obviously varies...does anyone have a clue as to why NeWS is complaining? 3) Finally, is Sun going to come out with a NeWS 1.1 recompilation to take advantage of 4.0 ? Thanks in advance Charles Ditzel uw-beaver!ssc-vax!benoni

Sun didn't give a very satisfactory response. Basically, some programs don't work under OS 4.0 yet. Steve Holmes sjh@math.purdue.edu
