I've now set up a DECstation 2100 as an X terminal with

:0 "/usr/bin/Xws -logo -indirect lservitp"      none    on      secure

in /etc/ttys.
It's connected to a color monitor (BNC cable). When booting up, the
console text is displayed in green, changing to white later (when going
multi user?). The X server is black and white though. Any app that is
started on a remote machine gets its X output dithered to b/w. How can I
change that?

Also, what's a simple way to configure the X server to use the German
keyboard's layout?
