You might try running "Xsun -dev /dev/cgfour0 ..." as the server.
If that doesn't work, you may need to figure out what address to
use for the cgfour in the kernel config and build another kernel.
(If that's needed, please send the fix - I don't have a 3/110.)
Does the cgfour show up in the autoconfig messages?
