  I'm running X11.3 on a Sun 3/50 under SunOS3.4. I thought I'd 
be a good citizen and apply the bug fixes to X. Well, it didn't
go as well as I had hoped. The server seems to be working fine.
Unfortunetly, xterm gets a "memory fault". Needless to say, it's 
hard to get much done if xterm doesn't work. Has anyone else had
this problem? As a work around, I restored xterm form the originals
and everythings working. Almost ...

  Being fairly new at X and being an adventurous type, I thought I'd
check out twm. Compiles fine, comes right up, looks good, but wait,
how come my keystrokes aren't doing anything? I can iconify the 
windows, move them, resize them, even select them for input. Just no 
input makes it to my xterm. This is the original version of xterm.
Any ideals?
  I should know better by now not to try and fix it if it ain't broken.
