System name:		REPOMAN
Type and version:	KN01 7.1D
Display type:		PM-MONO

What were you trying to do?

	Run Andrew Messages and Andrew EZ while telnetted into a PVAX and
setting the DISPLAY to repoman:0.

What's wrong:

	It spit out tons of error messages stating the following:

Fixed up unaligned data access for pid 29647 (Xmfbpmax) at pc 0x4443b4
	
	at my console, and the cursor for ez was messed up, while the fonts
were incorrect.

What should have happened:

	Andrew graphics applications shouldn't make the X server spit
	out all those icky messages, and shouldn't mess up the cursor and
	fonts.  Bill Cattey tells me this is a problem with the X server, so 
	fix it!

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
