Dear Netters:

Recently, I bought a X window system from MIT. It is X11R5. I want to compile
the system on my host, which is a VME147 plus the UNIX SYSV/68 Release 3 Version
6 as the O/S. As you may know, I encounter so many problems such as the lack of 
Unix Domain Socket on my O/S. 

Does anybody know what should I do to compile the X window system on my host? I
know there are new version for my O/S, which is version 7 provided by Motorola.
Do you know whether the new version O/S has features the X windows needs?

Thanks in advance

The current release of System V/68 for your system is R3v7.1.  In
addition, there is a matching Network Support Utilities, which
provides NFS, RFS, and TCP/IP, etc.  Also, we have "DeltaWINDOWS X
Window System and OSF/Motif, Release 1.2.1" for R3v7.1, R3v7.0, or
R3v6.2.  This is according to the October 24 price book.  There *may*
be a later release.  I've been using SVR4 for several months, and
haven't been really tracking the R3 DeltaWINDOWS releases.  That
should get you on your way.  I *believe* that that X release is X11R4.
If you *really* need X11R5, then you might talk with your sales
representative about the possibility of purchasing the source code for
our DeltaWINDOWS release to help in your porting effort.
