Hey, ya wanna start a war? ;-) I am using the same configuration and I *am* running DW 2.0 on the top of Ultrix 3.0 and I am fairly happy with it ... When I take a look at that poor guys on their Suns, using xterm, testing about 20 window-managers per day, using 50 different console progs and messing up their screen more and more, I wonder why they just dont use some ,,clean'' software. From my point of view, the X implementations from DEC and HP are one of the best available. Regards Udo P.S.: Sorry for not answering ur original question, but maybe someone (maybe you) could tell me why X11R3 core is better than DW 2.0 ? P.P.S.: anyone knows where to get ,,Ken Olsen'' Stickers? ;-) -- Udo Klimaschewski [udo@watzman.UUCP] [...uunet!mcvax!unido!watzman!udo] ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Gebt mir ein Loch und begrabt mich.
