2360.0. "XFrame on DS3100" by HOTAIR::OMALLEY () Mon Feb 26 1990 18:52

    A customer is trying to display XFrame (FrameMaker X Version) from a
    Sun 4/260 on his DS3100.  When the editing page is displayed all the
    characters are trashed. They appear similar to a stippled character
    but much more fragmented.

    If the document is edited then the line(s) that were modified will
    appear correctly.  If a popup menu is displayed on top of text, when it
    is removed the text under is trashed.  Some of the tool menus also
    display these characteristics.

    Has anybody tried this configuration?  Had any similar problem with X
    interoperability?

	Is framemaker trying to use backing store? Edit /etc/ttys and add -bs after the Xcfb or Xmfb. Kill the server and restart.
