Problems running xedit (X11R4) on a DS5000/200 ...

[greg at math15.math.umbc.edu]

	Hello,

	I was wondering if this sounded familiar to anyone.

	I have some DecStation 5000 model 200, with the PBX option installed.
(the low-3D option card).  The machine is running all X11R4 clients, except 
for the xserver (/usr/bin/Xtm).  This includes xdm, and friends as well. 

	The problem is that when you invoke xedit, the window apeaers, and 
you can edit your files, but the text cursor fails to appear.  The 
cursor is supposed to be a carrot, and in fact, you can very faintly see the 
cursor blinking if you hold down the left mouse button.  I think part of 
the problem might be that the server is still R3 (I believe) and the client 
is R4, but I'm not sure.  Has anyone seen this problem before ????


	I would appreciate any response, thanks allot,
	greg
