My setup is only roughly comparable: HP RS-20, 4 Mb. But the digitizer is
the s same. And no one seemed to have any good explanation for the
lockups, although having only about 8 Mb free on the hard disk paprtition
may (or, may not) have anything to do with the lockups. It hasn't happened
often enough to make a statistical analysis, nor will it, since I refuse to
us R11 anymore until the problem is solved. Others occassionally use this
machine for plots and have also had lockups when they did some drawing
manipualtion prior to plotting.
When I brought up the problem at the SFAUG no one seemed to have a clue
(but lots of advice). Naturally, when I saw SUMMA.ZIP I figured either a)
it was at least part of the problem, or b) it will be part of a problem.
So I'm not too anxious to use R11 until the digitizer situation becomes
clearer, too. Even if it turns out the previous lockups were caused by
inadequate hard disk space. (My boss says by the new budget time this
summer he can spring for another 84 Mb drive).
