I'm not sure what is happening in your configuration but I've got X11R4
running on my SS1 and have successfully used the Network Computing Devices
NCD17C (color), Visual X19 Turbo (monochrome), Tektronix XN11 (color), and
the NCR Towerview (monochrome) all at the same time while my (color)
console was running X.  OK so it was a little slow (I only have 8MB of
memory on my SS1), but I didn't have any other problems (yes I did have
xterms open on each display).
