     We have just completed the compilation of the X10.4 Windows sources
with upgrades to follow.  There were a few questions that I had regarding
the actual 'make install'ation that we are about to perform:

     1)  When we tried to modify the Makefile to allow for the testing
         of the program we had compiled, the Xsun program was looking for
         a database in /usr/new/rgb.  Would that be a factor in the 
         window loading up (Such as dimensions, colors, size, etc.?)
  
     2)  We are running this off of a Sun 3/50, which gave us very few errors
         on the 'make all' command, but when we tried to run the Xsun program
         in /tmp/test/X/servers/Xsun, the application didn't load properly,
         loading only 4 inches of the left side of the screen and a dot mouse
         cursor, which made us reboot each time we tried to start it.  Is
         there a specific reason for this, and if so, what are some appropriate
         measures to take to fix this problem?


Thanks for your time and cooperation.
