Hi xperts ,

I am running X11R3 + 8patches, on Sun 3's running SunOS 4.0. It runs great 
on monochrome suns but there seems to be a problem with color suns and grey
scale suns.

The problem is that it seems to have two virtual displays. When I move the
cursor, on one extreme (right or left side) of the sun screen 
(color/grey scale), the 
screen turns all grey, i.e., all the windows disappear and screen 
gets the color of the rootwindow, and  if i furthur move the cursor, 
it appears on the screen from the other side. the cursor thus wraps 
around the screen whenever it passes the right or left extreme side 
of the screen and comes back on the other side. similary , the windows
that disappear also reappear once the cursor appears on the other side
of the screen. However, the cursor does not get past the top and bottom
extreme of the screen as it should be .

I wonder if anyone else out there also has experienced this problem. 
and is there any solution to this. any help or pointers are highly 
appreciated.

-Aditya
