System name:		lyre
Type and version:	MVAX-II 7.0F
Display type:		QVSS

What were you trying to do?
	run emacs under a window manager that cares about the
	input hint.

What's wrong:
	emacs doesn't set the hint and this window manager therefore
	won't give focus to emacs.

What should have happened:
	the hint should have been set.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
