----- Has anyone managed to make XRN work properly with DECwindows under Ultrix 4.0? When I run the "latest and greatest" version (xrn 6.9), I find that the cursor (carat) does not appear in any of the displays. This is inconvenient, to put it mildly. When I roll back to xrn 5.4, this problem is solved. However, with either version, XRN seems to chow memory like there was no tomorrow - doing a "ps aux" while running it shows that it uses 65% (over 14MB) of the memory on a 24MB DS5000/200PX. Needless to say, this doesn't do much good for any other processes running on the machine. The same binaries, when run on an 3.1C-0 system use much more reasonable amounts of memory - around 1MB (which seems to be pretty standard for X programs). Any hints or ideas? Thanks, --Vince
