We were able to successfully run X11 Release 3 from MIT under V2.3 of Ultrix
with the patched sg.o kernel driver from expo, AND we are currently
running DEC's version of the server (Decwindows UWS 2.0) under Ultrix V3.0FT2.

Here is our problem:

When we try to run MIT's X11r3 under Ultrix 3.0FT2, the mouse cursor
acts crazy.  It jumps around between 3 positions on the screen when the mouse
is moved.  It doesn't matter what acceleration/threshold is set, it still
does this. 

I was careful to compile tldma.c (and tlinit.c just to be sure) WITHOUT -O
optimization, so that the I/O to the device would not be optimized away.

Any help?

Thanks in advance.
