Sometimes when I am using elvis, and I am happily edditing away, suddenly I get an 'Alarm clock' message, then a prompt. After this the machine locks up and I have to reboot. I don't have a cron job running( I think... ie I don't explicitly aski for one), but I seem to recall others with this problem. Thanks in advance, Bevan.
