I have installed the binaries for X11R5 on the RT (available at brazos.is.
rice.edu) and everything is installed correctly, however, when I run either
xinit or startx, it says "Killed," and I have no idea why.  Any ideas?
Hence, I can't run a window manager, etc., etc., which is really annoying.
( personally, I can only stare at a grey screen with an X cursor in the 
middle for a little while :-) )

I think that none of the clients from that port will run. I was told that
the server 'X' would run. I found it crashed my machine, and that may have
been due to the order of the cards on the bus. So just try starting X manually.

And then start those apps you want,    guess you'll have to used the old 
aixwm as a window manager...
