Do you have an existing .xinitrc? If so, try moving it aside. The
default location and size of the launched xterm (when a .xinitrc is not
present) should be small enough that you shouldn't see these problems.
Let me know if this is not a .xinitrc issue.

Subject: Multiple monitors
I understand there is already an FAQ but I think I haven't been around
long enough to see it.
I have monitors right, left, and above my main screen and X-11 doesn't
seem to believe it. It creates a default window which starts at the
upper left of the center monitor and runs below the lower right of the
right monitor in such a way that I cannot access the grow box - er -
point. In archival OS terms it seems to want to occupy all positive
coordinate space in gWorld.
But it's worse. I can't get to the grow box by dragging the window
upward because something won't allow a drag though the menu bar to the
upper monitor. Choosing Window-menu zoom the window jumps over to the
left monitor - negative coordinates. I can then make it very small so
that it can be dragged around where I want it. I can then resize it so
there is a workaround but it has to be done each time X-11 gets used.
Are there some defaults I can set in an initialization file somewhere?
I'm working my way through man ssh, but there seems not to be a man
X-11.
