I despair of getting email to your domain -- when another writer in
comp.windows.x complained of this problem and I echoed same, we both
received a mailed copy of a new Qdss driver from someone at DEC that
fixes the problem.  I have a copy, but am not sure how to help you --
contacting DEC is probably best.  I trust the repaired driver will be
included with Ultrix 3.0.
