i know that this is not really news,
but this is the definitive statement
on the qdss server.

    I'm using X11R3 on a VAXstation 3200 running Ultrix 2.3.

The R3 QDSS server is horribly broken, CopyPlane is just one thing that doesn't
work (see the Xqdss man page).  We've basically given up trying to maintain it
here, it's too broken and the device is too complex.  Digital is aware of the
situation, but I give you no promises (either way) about what you can expect
for R4.  If you need those requests to work, you can try using Digital's product
server, or you can find another machine ...
