Hello,
  I don't know if this has been ansered anywhere, but I haven't seen
any mention of it. Here is the situation:

I have a Sun 3/60C running SunOS 3.4.

This worked in X11R2:
after logging in:
> suntools -8bit_color_only -toggle_enable
and then in a shelltool:
> suntools -d /dev/bwtwo1 -toggle_enable -n &
> adjacentscreens -c /dev/fb -l /dev/bwtwo1
moving the mouse cursor left off the first desktop to the new desktop
and typing in a shelltool:
> setenv XDEVICE /dev/bwtwo1
> overview -w xinit -- Xsun
Now I would have a color suntools session and a black and white X session
simply by moving the mouse cursor from one to the other.

Now in X11R3:
after typing
> overview -w xinit -- Xsun
I get
Fatal server bug!

Can't find any displays


giving up.

xinit:  Protocol wrong type for socket (errno 41):  unable to connect to X server

Am I missing something simple here? I hope this isn't a "feature"!

Thanks for any information anyone can give me.
