I did Load System X-Server and saved an Incremental World after
(Herald now also says "X Server 424.0"). Whenever I do Select-<Square>
and then Start Server, I get a message

  [10:40:58 Process X Server got an error
   Select X Server Background Stream by typing Function-0-S.]

Sometimes the above notification also says that it tried to type-out
but couldn't (I can't reproduce that). So I do Function-0-S and a
window labeled X Server Background Stream at the bottom is raised and
displaying:

  Trap: The function X-SERVER:|bzero| is undefined.

  X-SERVER:|CreateColormap|

     Arg 1 (CTS:V1): #<ARRAY 191 simple 401130265>

I tried Load System X Documentation and can't find anything about the
X Server Background Stream.

I guess this isn't *that* important. I'm already really happy that
I've got everything else working and I'm really enjoying the
system. But, it's worth a shot. Using X apps like gnus in Emacs on the
Linux screen or the Genera X client itself via the Symbolic's keyboard
would be cool....

Thanks for pointers,
Christopher
