I'm not sure I understand everything.
The "x" you mention, must be the Windows Close button on the Exceed
window.
Whats the Console screen? Do you mean the background of the Sun
Workstation?

By Toolbar, you mean FvwmButtons or something else?
When he can't type into xterms is the window manager running,
Ie. are there frames around the windows?
With xterm, you can tell if the window gets focus because the
cursor changes from an empty box to a solid. Are the xterm
windows getting focus?

What goes on on the PC should not affect the workstation,
assuming each is started independently. Ie. using Xstart for
Exceed and running xinit from the console on the UNIX workstation.
