Subject: X11/R3 on Sun 3/60s with SunOS 3.5 and Sunview


We just switched to using X11/R3 and have noticed some behavior different
from X11/R2 when xinit is run from within Sunview.  Under R2, when one
started up xinit from within Sunview, it seemed as though Sunview was
(correctly) inhibited and Sunview updates did not show through and mess
up the X windows display.  Under R3, it is as though Sunview continues to
run and Sunview windows appear to show through and obscure the X windows
presentation.  Is there some reason that you are aware of as to why this
is happening?  Do you know whether anyone has attempted to run X windows 
"under" Sunview?  

Secondly, we have a two-screen configuration which worked fine under R2,
but with R3, it appears the -dev argument is no longer accepted by the
server and we can't figure out how to get both screens working.  Do you
have any insight?

If there is a more appropriate address for me to send this message, please
let me know.  Thanks -- Eric
