I presume this is an operating system problem.  When I run this on system V
i get 

Select error: not typewriter
repeated many times.

This is from _XtWaitForNextEvent in NextEvent.c in the Xt ib directory.

Looking at the code it was not clear what file desciptors are normally 
being passed to select() in this function that might cause this.  Can 
someone help me here?
