A very intermittent problem, that I can not reproduce. >Details: Sun 3/50 (4 Meg memory), SunOS 3.5.1, X11R3 and X11R4, twm and awm I've also noticed this phenomenon on my Sun 3/50 running SunOS 3.5 with either X11R3 and X11R4. (Both were built with Sun cc.) In addition, it seems as if the non-blanking screen saver broke with R4. Now the screen really blanks instead of displaying the X logo.
