[SunRescue] Low-Bandwidth X

[Joshua D. Boyd]

I have a SunOS 4.1 tape.  I'm under the impression that it has everything
on it, but since my Sun motherboard seems to be dead I can't verify it.
I'd offer you the tape, but I'm still hoping to get this machine
working.  Would NeWS be in the SunOS 4 tars that can be downloaded from
the net?
