A real long time ago, someone posted a patch for X10R4 which allowed you to freeze
the X server and pop back up to suntools when you ran X10 under Sun's Overview
(by typing LEFT-L2).

Has anyone done this for X11?  

I have been trying to do this myself, and just about had it working
when I got a color Sun 3/110.  The server doesn't seem to run on that
machine under Overview (it starts up, but then the keyboard and mouse
are frozen and you have to kill suntools to fix things).

The server ran fine on my monochrome display.

We are running X11, release 2 (release 3 has not been installed yet, but we
have the tape).
