I am installing X11R4 on a Sun 3/60 running SunOS 4.1 compiled with GCC 1.37.1.
I made the changes to gcc fixincludes to compile correctly, but now when X
is started, via startx, the xterm window is shown with a hollow box for the 
cursor and then exits.  The message received from xinit is:


xterm:  warning, error event receieved:
X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  28 (X_GrabButton)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  0
  Resource id in failed request:  0xc
  Serial number of failed request:  45
  Current serial number in output stream:  51

waiting for X server to shut down 


The binaries and libraries are installed on an NFS shared drive on another
server.  I have checked to make sure everything is installed as the release
notes specify.  I even checked on the fonts as it says may be wrong when
this problem happens.

I have it running just fine on a Sun 4/110.  Can someone tell me other things
to check which might be causing this problem?

Thanks in advance...
