  13. I have some problem running a motif-program on a sun xnews-server.
  14. The program just hang. Everything works ok on a MIT-x-server. When
  15. I use xscope on it I got this just before it hangs.

  49. The only differense is the changing of the time-argument in the response
  50. when I am using Sun's xnews-server.
  51.  
  52. I know that it could be millions of bugs in the program's code but I
  53. haven't got the source or any other tracing-capabilities (I run it
  54. on HPUX). When I check the documentation for the X protocol it says
  55. that in the "SelectionNotify-EVENT-response" for the "ConvertSelection-
  56. REQUEST" the arguments should be passed unchanged. I now wonder if
  57. the time-argument should be passed unchanged too and if it doesn't
  58. could there be any problems of that? I think the program is using motif 1.1.
  59.  
  60. Anyone have any ide???
