SunOS 4.1.1 used OpenWin Version 2, while Solaris 2.x (and even 4.1.3) use Openwin Version 3. Version 3 definitely is more memory intensive that 2, so this is probably where you are seeing the slow down. I am curious how much RAM is in the SS1 vs the Classic? ------------------------------------------------------------------ Jeff Vosburg Internet: vosburg@mli.mot.com X.400: Jeff_Vosburg-GJV001@email.mot.com Motorola Lighting, Inc DISCLAIMER: All views are entirely my own opinions and probably wrong! -------------------------------------------------------------------
