	At this particular instant, I am running exactly the R2 release
on my GPX (actually a 3200, but I had it running on a uVaxII last week
before the 3200 showed up) on Ultrix 2.2.

	You have to do precisely NOTHING to the base X distribution or to
your kernel. I had personally installed a virgin 2.2 on the machine
before installing  the MIT release, and not installed any V10 X version 
at all.  Just follow the installation directions; don't go out of your
way looking for trouble that doesn't exist.

	The build of the core distribution went without error, and
installed without error (make sure that you have the ULTDCMT022 subset
installed; the X distribution uses soelim for the man pages), and runs.

	Do not fuss with your kernel, though once converted to V11,
you can remove the Xos stuff from your kernel, if you had been
running that.
