I have been communicating with Johan Stevenson and from what he says, MINIX is not really ready for X. I have looked into the X server. It would be foolish to do a port on top of an unstable operating system. I have also determine that it makes no sense to port X into the Atari's native environment. Wait for MINIX to be released. You'll then have my full cooperation. -- ---Bob Amstadt bob@wiley.uucp {csvax.caltech.edu,trwrb.uucp}!wiley!bob
