We've had some difficulty getting "texx" (the dvi file previewer) to
work correctly.  It compiles and runs fine, puts up an appropriately
sized window, but doesn't display anything in it (although it takes
the correct amount of time to compose the page -- i.e., the watch
cursor is displayed for 10-15 seconds).  It's almost as if it were
using a white foreground on a white background when painting the text.

We have no problems running "texsun", which is the Sunview version of
the same program.  Well, one problem, which is that no one wants to
run Sunview just to preview their dvi files...

Anyway, we're running X11R3 right off the distribution tape on Sun 4's
running SunOS 4.0.1 (B&W monitors).  Any help or suggestions would be
greatly appreciated.
