I am trying to install cyber under NeWS1.1 on a SPARC. It comes up,
but leaves 

	pr_open: open failed for /dev/cgfour0_ovl

in the console. Nevertheless the program seems to work, I can execute
the example of fig.1, but if I try to execute

	[5 {random} repeat]

NeWS just crashes. The last time I got down to the boot prompt (or 
whatever you call it).

It took me a while to figure out what /dev/cg.. means. We only have 

	cgfour0  cgsix0   cgtwo0

overlay.ps says something about a patch to V1.1, I just don't have the
source. 

Can anyone point out to me what I can do???

Thanks

p.s. whenever I start NeWS, I immediately get the message

	!IS_VALID_FBTYPE 12
	!IS_VALID_FBTYPE 12

in the login shell.
