We have a Sun-4/110 here running SunOS 4.0 Sunview. The owner of the
system recently rebuilt his /usr partition and after doing so started
receiving some strange errors in sunview.
Sunview works for the most part, but windows sometime stop responding to
mouse functions. Ie, you go to close the window by clicking on the title
bar and nothing happens. A little while later in the console window
messages appear:
RPC: Remote System error - connection timed out
Selection Library Internal error
Couldnt get client handle for current holder
That window is useless from that point on and Sunview has to be restarted
to fix it. The problem may be triggered when text is put into the cut
buffer from one window and attempted to be used by another.
Does anyone have any insights into this problem? It would seem as if some
system program and/or file is not setup properly.
