3285.0. "UX V4 - VMS INTEROPERABILITY PROBLEMS????" by KETJE::DIERICK () Thu Aug 30 1990 12:40

I have installed ultrix 4.0 on my DECstation last week.

I tried to run XCRAB from a VMS 5.3 machine with the display set to
my workstation. Unfortunately it doesn't work anymore. 
The error I get is :


X error event received from server:  BadMatch - parameter mismatch
  Failed request major op code 73 (X_GetImage)
  Failed request minor op code 0 (if applicable)
  ResourceID 0x30011d in failed request (if applicable)

I don't think it is a XGetImage problem, I think the reason must be
found in the way the root window of the display is searched.

Are there any known problems with Ultrix version 4 interoperability ??
This seems to be important !




Thanks for clues,
