Subject: X11R6 compatibility

From: Karl Ivar Dahl <[email-masked]>

I am wondering wich X version I should install on my
NetBSD system. To make up my mind, I have to find the
answers for theese questions:

Can R6 run R5 compiled programs?

My Univerity has R5 installed. Can I install R6 and still
use a program like Aterm to get an X terminal over a modem
without PPP/SLIP?

Can I use the R5 colorservers?? I haven't seen anyone for R6.

Is R6 slower/faster than R5?

Does it consume a lot more HD space/memory??

Thanks for your time,
Karl Ivar Dahl
