Before I received the memory upgrade for the Xstation 120, I was convinced that the thing was a boat anchor. Almost everything I ran would crash the thing and even a few xterms stood a good chance of locking the Xstation up. Since the memory upgrade, I've been running X11R4 and I agree that it's a great choice. tvtwm runs correctly now, oclock is the right shape, (almost :-) nothing crashes the terminal, etc. Now I would be really ecstatic if we could get X11R4 on the main display. Does anyone at IBM know when this will happen? According to a note over in comp.windows.x, MIT will be releasing R5 to consortium members in July. It would be nice to at least have R4 before R5 arrives. Mike Berkley University of Victoria mberkley@sirius.UVic.CA
