- Yes, this is a known problem. In the latest FAQ file for comp.sys.hp, it
- says:
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
- 6) How come my HP X/Motif clients take a LONG time to display on a Sun?
-
- The problem is with the OW3 server. You can request OW3 patch 100444
- (or whatever is the current replacement) from Sun to fix the problem.
- Supposedly this has been rolled into OW 3.0.1. A workaround is to
- set the X resource *useColorObj: False.
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- You might also want to know that the latest version of the patch is 100444-35.
