System name: hodge
Type and version: KN01 7.3P (2 update(s) to same version)
Display type: PMAX-MFB
What were you trying to do?
rlogin to PODGE.MIT.EDU
What's wrong:
PODGE is running 7.4, and appears to have a bug. Instead of
displaying the message:
zwgc: Unable to open X display -- disabling X driver.
zwgc: To receive Zephyrgrams, (type `/usr/athena/bin/zwgc -ttymode').
it runs a zwgc with a DISPLAY :0.0
This causes zephyrs to pop up on the idle login screen, which shouldn't
be happening. This *DOES NOT* occur on 7.3 machines. This bug is
reproducable.
What should have happened:
It should have displayed the warning message and not run a zwgc.
(CERTAINLY not on :0.0)
