I am using a DECstation 5000 and could not port an Xlib code to it.
It has something to do with the type of server used by the DEC.
One thing I know that surely works is :

Before you run your application, start any X process like dxterm or
xclock etc. in the background. Now run your program on the same
display and it should work. Try it out. It worked for me.
