No, that means that you have to run a Xserver which is only X11R4 (and
also included in the 4.4 distribution, as far as I remember).

We have installed a PXG Turbo and are running Ultrix 4.4 with no problems
(only one minor).

I believe it is true.

No, this is wrong. I am using pxg and 4.4 right now. The server
supplied with 4.4 is not at R5 level (I believe it is now at R4). The
clients are R5 and work fine. Naturally, R5 specific features are not
available.
