I'm sure I've seen messages alluding to this subject on the list before,
but don't remember any resolution...
We have a bunch of Personal Workstation 500au systems fitted with 4D40T
video cards.
They're running Tru64 4.0F, with current patch kit, and Open3D 4.96.
Users with these particular systems seem to find that Netscape (4.76,
not the version supplied with 4.0F) hangs very frequently, sometimes
after as little as 10 minutes of use.
Netscape hanging is no new thing for me, but I usually get several days
of use out of it... my own workstation has the much simpler 4D10/Elsa
card (and no O3D) though.
I also *think* some older workstations with the ZLXp-L2 card and an
older version of O3D also had a similar problem, although I no longer
have those running.
Has anyone else seen this - is it a known problem - and more important,
is there a solution? I would hate to have to exchange the 4D40 cards for
ELSAs... they are so much faster.
Thanks in advance,
Graham
