1.  We had X11R3 working fine yesterday.

2.  We compiled everything in R4 with gnu 1.36 except rgb which we compiled
with cc.

3.  We are on a Sun 4/260 running 4.0.3

4.  We start the server with xinit, exactly the same as with R3.  After about
three seconds the server prints the following and dies:

Getting interface configuration: Operation not supported on socket
sunOpenFrameBuffer: Inappropriate ioctl for device

Fatal server bug!
no screens found
XIO:  fatal IO error 32 (Broken pipe) on X server "(null)"
      after 0 requests (0 known processed) with 0 events remaining.
      The connection was probably broken by a server shutdown or KillClient.

We looked at where the error is being generated (access.c) and it appears that
it is attempting to use TCP sockets rather than UNIX domain sockets.  Why?
server/os/4.2bsd was compiled with both -DTCPCONN and -DUNIXCONN.

Thanks in advance.


Chewey, get us outta here!
