I am haveing some problems installing a few client programs.  Maybe someone
can help with some of these.

INFO:
  Sun 386i/250  SunOS 4.0.2
  X11R4 compiled with cc
  UseServerInSunWindows YES  (I will probably change to no sunwindow)

PROBLEMS:
  xmh:  This program compiles fine and runs but doesn't seem to interface
     with my mail system.  Is the Sun386i running the wrong type of
     mailer and is there a way to get things working?

  xperfmon:  I think the problem with this program is when it calls nlist()
     on /vmunix it doesn't find any of the names.  I can't find any docs on
     what the names should be for my system.  Does anyone have a working
     version for the 386i?  Any help would be appreciated.

  xrn:  This program has the same problem mentioned by others in comp.windows.x
     I would just like to know when someone has a fix ready to go.

  xconsole: Got is compiled and seems to work.  BUT.  It doesn't seem to catch
     all the system messages.  Some message are written to the screen and I
     need to do an xrefresh to get things looking nice again.  This may be
     happening when sunwindows is running also.  I can't quite remember.
     Anyway I'm not sure how it's supposed to work or when and how to start
     it properly.

Other clients are either working fine or I haven't attempted them yet.
Alltogether the installation seem to be going fairly well.  I hope some
of you can help here.
