I think you have omitted an important piece of information.  The
visuals of your two screens must be different (i.e. one is color
the other is monochrome).  Xgraph tries to be intelligent about
selecting an appropriate visual.  Its algorithm favors color
over black and white.  Thus,  I suspect unix:0.1 is your
color screen.

I don't have an easy solution to the problem.  I am not sure,
but I suspect I can't easily determine whether you have explicitly
specified the screen in your display specification without explictly
parsing the specification manually.  Perhaps someone can suggest
a strategy.  In the interim,  you can change the function
ux11_std_vismap in ux11/ux11s_vismap.c to always use the default
screen and visual by changing the value of UX11_MIN_DEPTH from four
to zero.
