My configuration: RISC/6000 model 320 32 MB main memory 320 MB disk Gray Scale Graphics Adapter (4-bits) 8508 monitor 3001 update applied I've been experiencing problems with the X server dying and locking my console. Typically, this happens when communicating with remote hosts, but recently when I installed FrameMaker 2.0, it happens quite often. When I run FrameMaker and try to perform any operation on a document or its associated window, the X server dies and I'm hosed. It runs fine on our Xstation, SUN SPARCstation, and Zenith (Frame binary on the IBM). Has anyone else experienced this type of problem? If anyone has FrameMaker running, I'd *really* be interested in hearing from you. I'm convinced the problem lies with the X server on the IBM, but I don't have enough fuel on this problem. -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Chris McCoy : INTERNET: mccoy@acn.purdue.edu Systems Programmer : UUCP: ...!ecn-ee!mccoy Ag.
