We have problems running OpenWindows clients on a DECstation 5000 using
the DEC-windows X11 server.
Our configuration is as follows:
DECstation 5000 running ULTRIX 4.0.
Standard DECwindows configuration.
XView fonts from SUN XView 2.0 compiled using bdftopcf.
Applications like cmdtool start up, but if we move the cmdtool window,
the application aborts with a bad atom error. We have tracked it
down to a byte swapping error in the client-event WM_TAKE_FOCUS.
XView will ask the server for name (XGetAtomName) of the Atom 9830400,
equal to the byte-swapped value of 150 (WM_TAKE_FOCUS).
Is that a server bug.. ?. Is it possible to avoid that error ??
Thank you !?
