We have just installed X11 release 4 on our suns 4. The installation went
ok but we are having troubles getting much futher.

xinit and xterm are running fine,but whenever we try something else from
the xterm (but xclock),we get the following messages :

xterm:  fatal IO error 32 (Broken pipe) or KillClient on X server "unix:0.0"^M
xinit:  connection to X server lost.^M

After that, the keyboard is left in the state they've made kbd_mode for.

Does this ring anyone's bell ?
