You have to invoke the xdemo program with an explicit host spec, as in "xdemo balls myhost:0" for it to work, at least on the Sun. I do know why this is true, but it seems to be the case. By the way, the pixmaps for the balls demo are byte-reversed, so instead of circles you get semicircles that are back-to-back with the convex sides touching.
