ECO Kit #03 Description
-----------------------

The Motif Toolkit for Digital UNIX V3.2D-1 Release Notes contain a complete
explanation of this release.  Below is a brief description:

      ECO #       Description/Symptoms
      =====       ====================

      ECO 01      Fixes the performance problem when the correct depth of
                  the cached pixmap is not always stored in the image cache
                  structure causing the cached image not to be found at the
                  subsequent references.

      ECO 02      Fixes a badmatch X error message that occurs from
                  X_CreateWindow when creating a dialog shell widget with
                  an overlay plane visual.

      X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)


      ECO 03      DECwindows Session Manager (dxsession)

                  A potential security vulnerability has been discovered,
                  where dxsession writes to /tmp directory, which under
                  certain circumstances, system integrity may
                  be compromised.  Digital has corrected potential
                  vulnerability (CLD SSRT0432U).
                  An ungraceful exit can be made through the window manager's
                  'Close' button, whose behavior is inconsistent with that of
                  dxsession's 'End Session' button (CLD HPAQ210HY).


INSTALLATION NOTES:

      Install this kit using the PATCH script found in the compressed
