HI,

  I recently installed X11R4 on a Sun3 running SunOS 4.0.3. The 
first major, non-core dist. client I have tried to build is XRN
6.11 from shambhala.berkeley.edu.
  I have done compiles with both gcc and cc ( by manipulating
the sun.cf file) but can't seem to solve a frequent hangs.
Here are some of the erros I am seeing;

  1)  Warning: Can't translate event through NULL table
      Segmentation fault (core dumped) 

      This one appears in the console window.

  2) Caught signal (11) abort or exit...

      This appears in a dialogue box

  3) Can't calloc....

      In the console window.

  4) Sometimes a mysterious dialogue box will appear
      with no text. I cannot communicate with this box
      at all and must kill xrn.


Any hints would be much appreciated. For starters, is
 anyone using this program on a Sun?
