There is an OSF supplied addition to the /usr/lib/X11/XKeysymDB file.  It is
found on the release tape and should have been automatically installed if the
installation procedure was followed in the Release Notes.

Look for it on the release tape and install it.  It will make all the warnings
disappear.  Note: you must have root permission on most systems to modify the
file /usr/lib/X11/XKeysymDB.

I am just installing Motif1.1.1 on an i386 machine whose OS is SVR3.2.
I took advantage of the XWIN's X11 library which was supplied together
with SVR3.2.  And on the X lib, I used the Xt of X11R4 which was distributed 
from MIT after all the patches applied that.

When running the applications from $MOTIFHOME/demos, I received a great
many stuffs like the followings.

Warning: translation table syntax error: Unknown keysym name: osfActivate
Warning: ... found while parsing '    <Key>osfActivate:   ArmAndActivate()'

Though XKeysymDB was copied in /usr/lib/X11 or /usr/X/lib, the problem remained
the same. I think our X lib seems to be R3 library.
I read the MOTIF FAQ. But the content (Subject: 40) about XKeysymDB was 
too poor. 

Has anyone already solved this problem? 

Any help will be appreciated.
