[comp.unix.sysv386] Does Open Look run over Ethernet?

Hi folks,

     We just got an EN100 NAU Starlan 10 network board for our
6386 machine and are thinking about getting X Window Open Look
for it.  I have been told by a generally reliable source that
X works over Starlan but not over Ethernet (we are using the
cheapernet tap).  Is there any truth to this?  Can one fire up
a client on an X terminal?  Note that I know very very little
about the whole X and networking game (but learning fast), so
please forgive me if this is a ridiculous question.

     Also, what are avenues for getting the Motif widget set
running somehow on the 386 running AT&T UNIX?

     Steve
