I just brought up the basic version of X.V11R2 on our sun 3/160's running
OS 3.5.  I am running X on a 3/75 monachrome display, with the 160 as a NFS
mount.  After moving my .Xdefaults file somewhere, I was able to run xinit
and have it come up with a window in the default location.  However, there
was no text in that window.  I could run things within the window and they
ran ok - things like xclock, gnu etc.  But xterm never came up with any text.

I made sure to use the -p4 option to the font compiler, and changed the
destination of the files.  I noticed a previous message about a similar
problem, but on a color display.  That suggestion failed.

Anybody else out there have a similar problem?
