     We've installed PCIP on a COMPAC, an IBM XT and AT, both equipped 
with the Enhanced Color Display, and an IBM XT equipped with the
monochrome display.  

     PCIP works fairly well on the COMPAC (overlooking some problems
when using gnu-emacs).  Strange things, however, happen to the
display output when PCIP is used on the IBM machines.

     When displaying long text files (several pages), the Enhanced
Color Display occasionally goes blank, and the monochrome display
prints garbled text on a split screen.  Its as if the display
vector becomes momentarily lost.  Striking the function key F10
twice restores the display, for some reason.

     Has anyone encountered these problems and found a solution?
