I'm a day late and a dollar short; I know this just went around, but
we expire articles in three days, so I can't rewind news and see the
answers.

I installed X386 on my ESIX box with a Paradise VGA and Logitech (HiRez)
bus mouse.  I used the ESIX xms4 (bus mouse) device driver in Xconfig.  
When I run xinit from a virtual terminal, the server starts, the rootweave 
is drawn on the root window, the cursor is drawn, and then the system hangs.

Moving the mouse does nothing, ctrl-alt-bs doesn't kill the server, 
alt-F[1-9] doesn't switch to alternate virt. terminals.

Anyone else seen this?  Know the cure?

BTW, I still get the TCP: Invalid Parameter Error.  I'm ignoring it.
Does anyone know how to make it go away?  Also, under Berzerkley, (well
SunOS) the Server anchors the unix domain socket in /tmp/.X11-unix/X0.
X386 seems to create the file /tmp/sa.adrfl.  Is this the streams equivalent?
