- Hi! I don't have experience running X11r5 server on a decstation but from
- your description of mouse movement moving windows in the opposite
- directions, I can guess that maybe on your decstation's origin doesn't match
- with the mouse's. You might need to invert y values (and/or x values) in the
- ddx layer before passing to the server.
