    I've just gotten started with NeWS, so forgive me if this is the ultimate
novice question, but I can't run NeWS for more than a few minutes without
the bottom 1/5 of the screen puking out, and telling me:

"Window display lock broken because process xxxx blocked"

How do I fix the lock?  Can I get a new one at Ace Hardware?  How do I stop
this from happening.

    Secondly, can I start up the NeWS server and run NeWS in just one window
inside of suntools?  When I start up the server, it takes the whole screen.

    Thirdly, why did they name it NeWS instead of news?  Typing
CAPITAL N e CAPITAL W CAPITAL S is a pain.

Thanks for all replies.
