Agreed. And if someone would want to send a suitable DECstation
to me (Sweden) I would certainly have a look. :)

So I downloaded xsrc.tgz from nyftp but I don't really know where to start...
Just doing a 'sh configure' in /usr/xsrc/external/mit/xorg-server/dist
errors out with "config.status: error: cannot find input file: test/xi1/Makefile.in"
Anyone got any pointers?
