Hello,
Several programs running under X11R3, like kaleid and xemacs,
use the select system call, which does not return after the expected
timeout. I have a VAXstation II/GPX running Ultrix 2.2-1. The X server
is the one from the distribution X11R3 MIT source. 

Does anyone know of a work around/fix for this?

I just obtained the workstation a few weeks ago and have not been
a regular reader of either group, so if this has been gone over before
I'm sorry.
