[comp.sys.m88k] XR4

emiel@cv.ruu.nl (Emiel Polman) (05/06/91)

I am porting X11R4 from MIT on a Tektronix 88/10 machine.
Compiling the source gives no errors, but the xterm program
gives me IO errors.
Is there someone who had the same experience ?
the config file I use is the m4800.cf.

Check the file mit/lib/X/XlibInt.c.  88k systems compliant with the
Binary Compatibility Standard Networking Supplement will return EAGAIN
instead of EWOULDBLOCK on reads or writes to sockets if the data can't
be immediately transferred.  I believe this was the only significant
change I had to make the first time I ported X to Sanyo/Icon's 88k
machine (a very fine 88k box BTW).
