I've had some oddities from this code: We don't use the X much, but occasionally
the C shell core dumps (less than earlier release). Maybe you are using C shell?

(One of my engineers reports that the X accessed over the Network, 
was too unstable to use. I never got it working on console as serial mouse
support didn't work on our clone).
