Well, after getting several messages from others indictating that
they could see my images just fine, I decided to investigate further.
I pulled down the Mosaic-sun binary from NCSA and tried that -- no change.
I then changed my window manager from Motif 1.2 to Twm and tried it
again -- this time it worked! The problem seems to be somewhere in
the Motif window manager (I SHOULD HAVE GUESSED THAT FROM THE START).
Does anyone know if this is fixed in one of the 1.2.X bug-fix releases that
OSF wants us to pay $1500/year to get?
