I had similar problem with 9grid.de, and Cristoph kindly pointed me out to the function in drawterm that checked for locality of the X display. As this is exactly my situation that X server runs on a separate computer (i. e. X-terminal), so I added an option to drawterm to bypass this check. After that I was able to access both 9grids and login, but it turned out drawterm crashed my X server (the pattern is steady), so the X-terminal rebooted (and this is good that it is separate from the main computer). This is definitely a problem on my side.

Just in case, maybe someone had similar troubles with drawterm and certain old/buggy X servers? Mine is Xfree86 v 3.3.6, S3 Trio64+. If there are any other combinations that don't work please let me know.
