We've recently gotten an RS/6000 with a grayscale display and I've
been trying to get the X11R5 clients to work with the supplied IBM
X11R4ish server (since the greyscale adapter is not supported by the
MIT X11R5 sample server) and I cannot seem to get them to connect to
the display.  I've tried both the UNIX domain and TCP socket
connections and the X11R5 client simply says "cannot open display"
(I've even tried "xhost +" to no avail).
The clients do work for TCP connections to X11R5 servers on Sun
SPARCstations and NCD Xterminals.

Does anyone have an idea of what is going on?  I'm using the MIT
X11R5 patchlevel 16 sources.
