I have a problem which I cannot understand with Xdvi pl 16 when
displaying to an HP display (running X11R4 from HP (as in HP-UX 8.07)
but not VUE.)  The problem is the same whether the client is run on an
HP or a Sun.  The result is that all the bitmap is drawn in white on
white instead of various greys, but all works fine if I explitly set
the -fg and -bg colours.  Experimenting, I find that just setting -bg
white does the trick, even though this appears to make no difference.
Certainly as far as I can see in init_pix the same colours get chosen
and allocated whether I set the option or not, but in one case it
works and in the other it fails.  Does anyone have any ideas as to
what to look for, or possible causes?

To be consistent with DNS domain ordering, shouldn't news groups have
names like "admin.sun.sys.comp" not "comp.sys.sun.admin" ?  EMWTK
